The Board appreciates the support shown by shareholders for the resolutions at today's AGM, although it notes the outcome of the voting on resolution 15 relating to our 2026 Directors' Remuneration Policy ("Policy").

The Board is committed to ensuring Pearson has an executive remuneration structure which rewards superior performance. This focus on performance-based pay is designed to support Pearson's culture, drive execution against the strategy, and attract and retain leadership to deliver sustained value for shareholders. For these reasons, the Board believes that the Policy is appropriate and aligned with shareholder interests and is encouraged that a clear majority of our shareholders is in agreement.

Pearson has a constructive and positive relationship with its shareholders and, in advance of the AGM, undertook an extensive multi-phased engagement exercise which informed the development of the Policy. Overall, the company engaged with or received feedback from those representing approximately 85% of the share register, in addition to engaging with the major proxy agencies. Further detail on this shareholder engagement, and the impact it had on the Policy proposals, is set out on page 125 of Pearson's 2025 Annual Report. The company will continue to actively engage with shareholders and will publish an update within six months of the AGM, in accordance with the UK Corporate Governance Code.
