Primary Times

Primary Times is a magazine for parents, pupils and teachers in the primary school sector across the UK and Ireland. There are 58 Primary Times magazines with a combined distribution of over 2.7 million copies per issue, each one serving its respective local community with event listings, information and advertising relevant to their region.

It is primarily a Whats On / Where to Go / What to Do Guide for parents of primary school children, supplemented with local editorials and advertising. We publish 7 times a year at the start of each half and full term holiday, plus a Back to School issue. Distributed free to primary schools, it is taken home by the pupils and remains in the home for several weeks.

The magazine is franchised out to regional publishers, each of whom usually lives locally and therefore has a keen appreciation of, and empathy with, the region they serve. It has been commended by the Daily Mail, The Scotsman, The Irish Times, Business A.M. and by Directors of Education across the country for its service to local communities. “Things to do at a place near you”.
