KBC Education

KBC Education (Kent Book Company) is a well established (for over 50 years) educational media supplier servicing schools and libraries. KBC is a leading schools and library supplier in the UK and Europe. The company has a servicing, warehouse and despatch centre near Sevenoaks, Kent.

We offer:

  • Over 5 million new books from stock (all our books are new);
  • Terrific educational and textbook discounts;
  • Fast dispatch;
  • Excellent customer care.

This website replaces all the current www.kbc.eu.com web ordering functionality from KBC on Monday July 16th 2012.

Pickabook was acquired by KBC in April 2011, and we have now integrated KBC's industry leading schools and library book processing facilities into the pickabook website workflow. This enables pickabook.co.uk and existing KBC educational customers to enjoy the KBC value added services provided, including book jacketting, bespoke spine, class, and AR labelling, and supply of MARC21 bibliographic data.

All KBC's unique products, such as our Collections (see below) are available immediately on this website.

Our latest Collections are handpicked specialized collections of primary and secondary school books which provide a simple solution to stocking essential reading materials for classrooms and libraries. We provide collections tailored to specific educational schemes, such as the International Primary Curriculum (IPC), Accelerated Reader™ and the International Baccalaureate (IB) programme.
