School PNG images: books, pencils and classroom items
Teachers and students make more visual material than almost anyone: worksheets, slides, posters, certificates and classroom displays. Transparent images of books, pencils and classroom objects make these quick to assemble and easy to print.
This collection covers stationery, books, school bags, globes, calculators and classroom furniture. For printed worksheets, prefer simple images with clear outlines, which stay legible even on black-and-white printers.

Tips for designing with school & education PNGs
Print-test in grey
Many school printers are black and white. Preview your worksheet in greyscale to make sure images do not turn into dark blobs.
Use images as section markers
A small pencil or book next to each heading helps younger readers find their place on the page.
Keep files light for slides
Large PNGs make presentations slow to open and share. Our guide to optimizing PNG file size shows how to shrink them.
