The Stagecoach concept was unique upon its inception and is today
unique in a franchise environment. Our concept is quite simple but more importantly very effective

 

A Stagecoach franchise offers you the opportunity to run part-time theatre arts schools on the 37 Saturdays and or Sundays of the academic year, training children aged between 4 - 16 Drama, Dance and Singing. Most franchisees start with a single school catering for 45 students and open further schools once the first has been filled. For the right person, it is a chance to combine an ambition to have a Theatre Arts School of your own with a substantial part-time income.

Stagecoach has over 600 schools in England, Scotland, Wales, Ireland, Germany, Spain, Gibraltar, Greece, Malta, Australia, Canada and the United States. Each school performs for parents twice a year as well as auditioning for major showcase productions in a London theatre.

The potential market is around 7 million children at present and is continually expanding. To date there is little or no competition offering the three disciplines in one place in one weekly session. Indeed there is such a demand that some centres have opened with a full register and a waiting list.

Going into business is one of the most traumatic events in life. Support from Stagecoach however, smooths the path and removes much of the stress. But it doesn't stop there.

We are with you every step of the way… from assisting in selection of the most suitable venue… choosing the best teachers… publicity… administration… etc etc… we support you in every aspect of running and controlling your business.

Our standards are very high. The education that students receive must be interesting, varied and totally involving. Our students must look forward to attending each class and feel a real sense of achievement. Existing and past students are our best recommendation and it is our responsibility to them and their parents that their confidence and communication abilities grow steadily throughout their training.

You will be provided with Operating Manuals covering every aspect of running your school, which together with your own motivation, expertise and enthusiasm, will make your school a success.

You will be thoroughly trained to run a Stagecoach Theatre Arts School. Our induction training course is comprehensive and detailed but not complicated.

We have developed this concept to be easy to run and control so that most of your time can be spent educating your students and monitoring their progress.

With this in mind we are constantly available to advise and support you in all matters concerning your students' artistic and educational development.
