Becoming a Kumon franchisee

Kumon is looking for driven professionals who are passionate about education, children and helping them build a brighter future. Together with over 11.5 million potential Kumon students across the UK, you can turn that passion into a reality by running your own Kumon study centre where one doesn’t already exist or is available because an existing Instructor is retiring.

  • You don’t need a background in education to become a franchisee. Many of our Instructors have had careers in law, finance and business and have experienced the benefits of the Kumon programmes themselves through their own families
  • This is a full-time business opportunity where you will build and run your own business while also helping children fulfil their potential
  • You will become part of a network of Instructors that share best practice along with the satisfaction of making a difference to children in your local community
  • You’ll have an Area Manager to offer advice and support in launching, running and marketing your Kumon study centre
  • There is a minimal start-up fee and Kumon offers generous subsidies to centres opening in specific venues or areas
  • Through delivering both face to face and online classes, you’ll help many families benefit from learning with our method

What does it mean to be a Kumon franchisee?

Becoming a Kumon franchisee provides a unique opportunity to develop students through the Kumon programmes, as well as building your own study centre and business.
When you join the Kumon network of Instructors, your local Area Manager will work with you to get your study centre up and running as you prepare to start your training. We want to make sure you have what you need to succeed, so as well as two week’s initial training, we’ll supply you with the business model, the support of our Brand Marketing team, plus we will invest in your professional development with our ongoing instructional training.
