WEY EDUCATION PLC

("Wey Education" or the "Company")

Exercise of Options

The Company announces that employees have exercised options over 5,325,371 and 3,000,000 ordinary shares of 1 pence each ("Ordinary Shares") in the share capital of the Company pursuant to the EMI option scheme and Unapproved option scheme, respectively (the "Option Exercise").

Application has been made for the 8,325,371 new Ordinary Shares to be admitted to trading on AIM, which is expected to take place on 25 May 2021. The new Ordinary Shares will rank, pari pasu, with the existing Ordinary Shares in issue.

In accordance with the provisions of the Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules of the FCA, the Company confirms that, following this issue, its issued share capital will comprise 148,183,842 Ordinary Shares of 1 pence each. All Ordinary Shares shall have equal voting rights and none of the Ordinary Shares are held in treasury. Accordingly, the figure of 148,183,842 may be used by shareholders as the denominator for the calculations by which they will determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or a change to their interest in the Company under the FCA's Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules.

As a result of the increase in the issued share capital of the Company due to the Option Exercise, Jacqueline Daniell's (Chief Executive Officer) shareholding, in conjunction with Mr Paul Daniell, has reduced as a percentage of the total issued share capital of the Company from 7.38% to 6.96%.
