A critical part of the Hachette Learning family

Since 1959, John Catt Educational has established itself as a highly regarded professional development publisher, earning the trust and loyalty of thousands of teachers around the world. Our commitment to publishing high-quality guidebooks, magazines, and professional development books has secured our position as a leading publisher in the education sector. 

Working with some of the most respected educational authors in the UK and beyond, we built a reputation for excellence that resonates throughout the global education community. As Sir David Carter, former National Schools Commissioner, noted that:

"The contribution that John Catt is making to the library of research and development in the UK in terms of the lexicon of leadership and teaching is significant."
