Pearson is going to acquire Connections Education. I know both companies well and think this is a great combination.
Connections is another success story for Sterling Partners, backers of Laureate, Sylvan. Peter Cohen, President of Pearson’s School Group, came from Sterling/Sylvan and was on the board at Connections before joining Pearson about three years ago.
Connections has been very thoughtful and transparent about the formation and relationship with nonprofit boards and in contracting relationships with district partners.
For Pearson, this transaction signals a more rapid move into school management that was anticipated.
