*********************** ARTICLE START ***********************
An increasing number of us are looking for flexible working patterns, for a wide variety of reasons. Sometimes it�s because we have children or elderly relatives to care for, or others are studying at University and need something which they can do part time from home. Taking on franchise is an attractive proposition as it offers a low-risk way of entering into the world of work and a chance to be your own boss. Although education is perhaps not the first thing that springs to mind when considering buying any business, it is one of the fastest growing sectors of the market for many reasons.

Types of Education Opportunities

The types of businesses available can be split into two main types. The first sort of franchise concentrates on reinforcing or giving additional help with the core school subjects such as English or Maths. Two of the biggest franchises operating in this sector are Kip McGrath and Kumon. The second sort of educational franchise focuses on pre-school children or offers extra-curricular activities such as art, music, dance or drama. There are a huge number of these sorts of companies, and some of the names which are familiar to all parents include Razzamataz theatre school, Tumble Tots, Jo Jingles or Creation Station. The choice of which is most appropriate for you will depend on what other sorts of companies are already operating in your local area, your individual interests or preferences, and how much capital you are prepared to invest initially.

Developing Market

Surprisingly given the challenging economic conditions of recent years, educational franchises have continued to grow. Parents seem unwilling to cut back on their children�s out of school activities even when the family is feeling the pinch, and many also feel that investing in extra tuition in the basic skills will give their child an advantage compared to their classmates and will pay dividends when it comes to sitting exams and getting a good job in later life.

Flexibility

One of the main advantages of running this sort of business is that it works well around other commitments. Classes for school age children run in the late afternoon, evening or weekends and therefore it is easy to combine an education business with University, part-time employment or caring duties. Franchisees have flexibility over when and where they run their classes, and this means that they can structure their working week to suit themselves. Many education businesses choose not to operate during school holidays, making them the ideal choice for parents.

Getting Started

You don�t need any teaching qualifications for many of the pre-school or drama franchises, but most operators find it almost impossible to attract customers without some sort of credentials. A desire to work with children or young people is absolutely essential, as is boundless enthusiasm and energy for your chosen concept. Finally, you will have to undergo thorough Police checking into your background before starting your new career.
