                      Notification of Directors' Interests

RM plc, the UK's leading supplier of ICT and services to education, today
notifies shareholders of changes in Executive Directors' interests following the
purchase of shares using bonuses awarded and compulsorily deferred into RM
shares under the RM plc Deferred Bonus Plan 2005 ('DBP') and the same day
release and sale of matching shares awarded under the RM plc Co-Investment Plan
('CIP').

In respect of ordinary shares invested in the CIP in March 2003, the plan has
matched shares at 2.88:1 as a result of strong EPS growth and TSR results over
the last three years.  All of these shares vested yesterday and therefore, as
expected, Executive Directors are realising some or all of their benefits in
accordance with the terms, and at the times, set out in the CIP. Accordingly,
Tim Pearson (CEO), Mike Greig (Group Finance Director) and Rob Sirs (Chief
Operating Officer) have today disclosed that the trustee of the RM plc Employee
Share Trust has sold some or all of their holdings in the CIP matched shares at
a price of 155p per share.  At the same time, all three Executive Directors have
used 40% of their 2005 bonuses to enable the trustee to purchase ordinary shares
under the DBP at a price of 155p per share.  These shares will be held in trust
for 3 years and will be subject to the rules of the DBP.

As a result of these transactions each Executive Director has increased his
shareholding.

The table below sets out, for each Executive Director, the number of matched
shares under the CIP (1), the total number of CIP shares sold (2), the number of
DBP shares purchased (3), their total shareholdings before these transactions
(4), their total shareholdings after these transactions including DBP shares (5)
and their total shareholdings as a percentage of issued share capital after
these transactions including DBP shares (6).
