YPO evolves to continue to be your education partner of choice 5
0 years ago, 13 local authorities joined forces to transform public procurement by combining their buying demands to achieve savings. This innovative step marked the birth of YPO as we know it today.
For five decades, procurement has and will continue to remain our heart and soul and we’re incredibly proud of our achievements powered by our team, suppliers, and partners.
Alongside working with partners to bring creativity into your learning environments and innovating our website so you can see your personalised content.
We’re 100% publicly owned, meaning all our profits go to the public sector. We’re proud to be a trusted partner, for 50 years and counting. We continue to evolve to meet your needs, from stationery essentials to innovative edtech solution Learning Box
