In 2023 the Publisher of the Year survey was discontinued, and instead, publishers provided a statement on why its 2022 performance merits the award of Publisher of the Year. This information was reviewed by a judging panel of industry experts.
Congratulations to the 2023 Primary and Secondary Publisher of the Year awards!
The Publisher of the Year awards are proudly sponsored by the Copyright Agency.
Previous winners
The Awards (Primary and Secondary) were voted on by teachers, librarians and educational retailers through the annual Publisher of the Year Awards Survey.
