What School Books Do We Publish?

Whether you are printing a textbook, curriculum guide, or planner you have come to the right place.

• Workbooks
• Textbooks
• School Planners
• Programmes
• Reading Records
• Curriculum Guides
• Prospectus'
• Display Books
• Poetry/Prose Books
• Yearbooks
• Recipe Books
• Fundraising Books
• School Exercise Book Printing

Where a book is representing your school, you want it to look premium and glossy with a nice feel when you turn the pages. We ensure the paper is the right thickness for your product so you don't get that super-thin, flimsy product catalogue finish.

Likewise, for a yearbook, this will be memorabilia that students will cherish for years to come and they may even want to share with the next generation, so it needs to last.

What about if you're after a high-quality school exercise book print that's good value for money? We do that too!

These are just some of the types of books we regularly publish for schools and education providers. If there's something more niche you'd like to bring to life, talk to our team and they'll help make that happen.

The Design Process Explained

Designing a book for your school is a big task, but there are many ways to get this done without too much stress. We provide hands-on advice, specialist formats and exceptional results.

We have a team of in-house designers who can help with the interior layout and cover design of your book. Or, you can use the skills you have in your school, using our preformatted templates to get started.

If you have your print files already, our designers can perform a free file assessment to ensure they are print ready and that you're not in for any nasty surprises when your books are printed.

Who Do We Work With?

Whether you're a Headteacher or a School Secretary, we regularly work with educational staff to deliver professional-looking print materials that don't cost the Earth.

Headteachers and Deputy Heads

If you're after a high-quality Prospectus or Curriculum Guide that projects a professional image to both parents and inspectors, we can help you achieve exactly that. We'll help you balance value for money, upholding your school's strong reputation, and ensuring Ofsted compliance when seeking print materials.

School Department Heads or Year Group Leaders

If you want to avoid generic, off-the-shelf materials, such as one-size-fits-all textbooks, we can help bring your vision of tailored lesson plans and custom workbooks to life. With Book Printing UK, you can get books that perfectly match your curriculum, without the need to understand complex printing specifications.

School Secretaries, Admin Assistants, or Finance Officers

For schools and educational institutions, ordering items like planners and staff handbooks needs to be as efficient and cost-effective as possible. Our system accommodates the use of Purchase Orders (POs) and ensures reliable, time-sensitive delivery that must arrive before the start of term, with no hidden costs.

Parent-Teacher Association (PTA) Members and Yearbook Creators

With our school book printing service, you can easily create memorable keepsakes like yearbooks, school recipe books, or fundraising anthologies. One of the main challenges is managing hundreds of pupil photos and ensuring the final product is a keepsake that students will want to cherish for years to come. We match up the right inks, page layouts and paper thickness to ensure the end product offers a high-quality finish.

Build Your Book

We make it super easy to build your book! Follow our step-by-step quote builder that hones in on exactly what you're looking for, showcasing all your options in a way that's easy to understand.

• Choose the type of book – we work with paperbacks, hardbacks, plastic coils and wire-o (perfect for weekly planners), booklets, flyers, leaflets and posters. For a luxury option, perhaps for those once a year brochures advertising placements at your school, we also offer thread-sewn spines.
• Choose the size & orientation of the pages – From A6 to A4, we have all the regular page sizes for specific use cases. But, if you're after something unique, you can also request custom sizes.
• Choose the cover – We give you options on the thickness and finish (gloss and matte) of your cover. We even have some special finishes if you want to go all out with your design!
• Think about the pages – You have the option to print in full colour, black and white or black and white with colour inserts. You also get a say on the thickness of the pages to achieve the quality feel you're after. If you're unsure, our team will be happy to assist.
• Think about whether you want any additional features – As well as school book printing, we have specialist proofreaders, editors and designers on hand to support. These are ideal where you need a flawless, professional-looking publication but don't have the in-house resource to hand.
