First Class Learning Looking to Recruit Franchisees in Birmingham and Manchester

Education franchise also has prime postcodes available in both East and West London

First Class Learning (FCL), a highly successful education franchise specialising in maths and English, is targeting expansion in Birmingham and Manchester. It also has some prime territories available in East and West London.

FCL is currently the UK’s fastest growing tuition business with over 300 centres nationwide. It focuses on building the skills and confidence of students by taking a personalised approach to learning using highly regarded maths and English programmes created by FCL’s own specialist development teams.

Ed Hyslop, Chief Executive, First Class Learning, explains: “We have identified several key areas around the UK for expansion, including Birmingham, Manchester and some key London postcodes. We’re looking for like-minded and motivated individuals with the desire to run their own business helping children overcome their personal obstacles in maths and English. Above all else we are looking for people who share our passion for working with children and helping them succeed.

“It is important to us that potential franchisees have the qualities needed for the role. Although around 80% of the company’s existing franchisees are ex-teachers or have an education background, this is not a necessary pre-requisite as the company welcomes anyone with a business background who can be trained in the FCL learning strategies and methodologies. Centre managers choose the days and times that suit their venues, as well as the fee structure for their centre. Our set-up also offers a great deal of flexibility based on personal circumstances, and therefore a great work/life balance.”

Hyslop adds: “Core to FCL’s success is investment in people, which puts children at the heart of everything we do. Since our launch over fifteen years ago we have helped over 100,000 students. We are here to make a positive difference to children’s learning development.”

First Class Learning has low start-up costs, with investment levels varying depending on where a centre is situated with initial franchise fees starting at £8,000 + VAT.
