These are academic diaries for the students who want the best quality, the best design, and the best results. We're talking about acing your exams because you planned your year and didn’t miss a thing. The kind of academic diary that earns you a quiet nod across the room. If you know, you know.
Maybe you’re not a student, but you love to plan around this time of year. Whether you call it an academic planner or a mid-year diary, same thing, difference purpose. Not everything has to start in the new year, loads of historical calendars started in spring. It makes sense, right? It’s about renewal. A fresh page. The start of a new season.
If you’re a teacher getting prepped for the school year, we’ve got a new addition you’ll love. A brand new teacher academic diary is coming your way, designed specifically for lesson planning, timetables and everything in between. Keep scrolling to discover more.
Your favourite planners are back.
We’re bringing back our usual favourites for the academic year. We’ve tested them out ourselves, and they’ve gathered a bit of a cult following, and we get it. It’s not just the layout, though that’s high on our list. It’s the paper, the feel, the story behind it. The whole shabang. And who can resist the new colourways each year? These are education diaries with the full package. That’s why we continue to stock them, year after year.
New This Year: Our Own Academic Diaries
We’re finally ready to launch our very own Papersmiths academic diaries. We meant to release them last year, but perfection takes time. You might’ve seen us teasing them in the newsletter. We wanted to get every detail right, and we’re confident now that we have.
Last September we released our first dated diaries for 2025. They were snapped up. The first pre-order sold out, and we’ve had zero returns. Not a single one. The reviews were glowing. So we’re expanding the collection and launching mid year diaries this June.
What’s coming soon
We’re running you through our academic diary line-up for the 2025–2026 school year. Whether you’re after a study planner diary, teacher planner or uni diary, there’s something for you.
