Primrose Schools Franchise Model Overview

Primrose Schools serve infants through pre-K and after-school students from free-standing buildings the franchisee develops, often with franchisor-arranged real estate and financing partners. The franchisor requires an active owner, and the school runs with a director and teaching staff. Tuition is monthly and waitlists are common in strong markets. The system is entirely franchised and mature, and resales of established schools — often with their real estate — appear as founding owners retire.
