Point Franchise welcomes Kumon

Kumon has joined Point Franchise – a clever decision for the education franchise.

Point Franchise is delighted to welcome Kumon to its wide and varied network of franchise opportunities. The supplementary education provider pushes children to reach their potential and does the same for its franchisees by offering a fantastic business opportunity. We’re so excited to introduce the education franchise to our network.

Kumon offers an innovative and personalised approach to learning that encourages every child to take charge of their learning and develop their intellectual independence, as well as increasing their confidence in both English and Maths. Suitable for both struggling and gifted learners (as well as those who simply want to challenge themselves), Kumon differs from traditional tutoring in that it doesn’t just get children to pass exams, encouraging them instead to develop a love of learning that will benefit them for life. Its educational programmes are suitable for children from the tender age of two right up to sixth form age, supporting children right through their time in education.

The education franchise was set up by Toru Kumon in 1958, after he wanted to help his son Takeshi improve his maths skills. A gifted educator, Kumon was able to use his teaching skills to create a new education programme that could be taught across the globe that suited every level of intellectual ability. Now, Kumon has more than 24,000 centres spanning 50 countries across the globe and is continuing to expand.

Opening your very own Kumon centre can cost from just £3,000 and you won’t need previous experience running your own business or even teaching children. The franchise is seeking individuals with GCSE level Maths and English qualifications who are passionate about empowering the next generation by providing quality education through a proven and highly successful business model.
