Primrose Schools, the premier early education and care leader with more than 530 franchised locations, kicked off 2025 with continued growth and aggressive expansion plans in four key markets across the country. The company's development efforts are fueled by the rapid demand for high-quality early education and care alongside its mission to forge a path that leads to a brighter future for all children.

With more than 40 new locations slated to open in 2025, the nationally recognized early education and care provider has signed 19 franchise awards since January. A proven franchise model that remains dedicated to quality and serving more children nationwide, the brand was also named one of the leading franchises by Entrepreneur's Franchise 500^® awards for the eighteenth consecutive year. Additionally, Primrose Schools received the 2025 FUND^™ TopScore Award in the nonfood category, exemplifying its commitment to supporting franchisees' access to financing by simplifying the process.

"We are proud of our franchise system's national recognition and exceptional growth and excited about our strategic expansion into key areas nationwide," said Nick Koros, chief development officer at Primrose Schools.
