Tribal Group plc ('Tribal Group' or the 'Company')

Trading statement for the 12 months ended 31 March 2002, contract wins and new
banking facilities

The board of Tribal Group will be presenting its strategy to equity analysts
today ahead of the Company's close period.

Tribal Group anticipates that its results for the year ended 31 March 2002 will
be significantly ahead of market expectations.  The preliminary announcement of
these results will be made on, or around, 25 June.

Tribal Group announces today that it has recently been awarded two important
education contracts:

•         a contract from the Department for Education and Skills to develop and
pilot online teacher training courses.  The courses will help literacy and
numeracy teachers to use ICT more effectively in their teaching.  The contract
will be worth £1.1m over five months and follows on from the experience gained
from the New Opportunities Fund initiative, through which Tribal Group provides
ICT training to over 30,000 secondary school teachers.

•         a contract from the Office for Standards in Education to carry out 340
school inspections during the period to the end of July 2003.  This contract is
valued at £4.6m and represents an approximate 9% market share.

It is expected that further contract wins will be announced in the coming
months.

Tribal Group also announces that it has completed the negotiation of new bank
facilities with Bank of Scotland.  The new facilities total £36 million and will
provide Tribal Group with considerable flexibility in financing future
acquisitions and the overall development of its business.
