School Accreditations

"The heart of the Primrose brand is quality and standards of excellence. Primrose Corporation values accreditation and continuous improvement as part of quality. Processes, procedures, and programs rarely operate in isolation within this corporation. Rather, through quality leadership and management, they are systematically linked allowing each to support and build upon others."

At Primrose we do everything to ensure our children are safe, happy, and learning. That means we are constantly evaluating, studying, and improving our best practices through external and internal reviews. To better understand why Primrose's dedication to the highest standards is so important, please download this informative white paper.

We are committed to excellence

Our commitment to accreditation assures parents and the community that our schools are focused on raising student achievement, providing a safe and enriching learning environment, and maintaining an efficient and effective operation. Our schools adhere to high quality standards based on the latest research and successful professional practices.

We make the grade!

Primrose Schools holds Corporate Accreditation (since 1998) through AdvancED™ and was the first early childhood organization to require all schools to obtain individual school accreditation through SACS CASI or NCA CASI, based on the school's location.

For more than 100 years, these organizations have been recognized as the gold standard in evaluating schools and colleges. Today, SACS CASI and NCA CASI are the accrediting bodies of AdvancED(TM), an organization dedicated to advancing excellence in education worldwide by providing accreditation, research, and professional services to 27,000 public and private schools and 4,500 school districts across the U.S. and in 65 countries.

Primrose also has a rigorous internal quality assurance program, the Service Excellence Assurance (SEA) program. That means we undergo quarterly quality assurance reviews conducted by our national headquarters field consultants to make sure we are doing everything necessary to create a safe, nurturing, and stimulating environment in which children can learn successfully.

We are prepared

We have a comprehensive "Safe School Plan" with guidelines to ensure ongoing safety measures are in place and to prepare our schools and parents for any kind of emergency. It was created in conjunction with safety consultants and organizations such as fire, health and police departments. We update it annually, and every school undergoes monthly and quarterly drills for critical emergencies.
