We saw encouraging improvements in trading across many parts of OUP as pandemic restrictions were lifted. Our Academic division—which had been least affected by the impact of the pandemic—maintained its good trading momentum, seeing continued demand for high-quality research content. Our Education and ELT divisions also saw a return to growth, with particularly strong performances in the UK, Pakistan, Argentina, and Turkey.
The Academic division maintained its good trading momentum across all lines of business, with a 1.7 per cent growth on the already strong performance in the previous year.
