A franchise with MagiKats Tuition Centres offers you the chance to build a substantial business whilst giving back to the community by educating the next generation in Maths and English.
If you are in education but want to regain control of your “free” time then MagiKats could be for you.
If you simply feel you need to be your own boss, but with the support of a proven system that has been successfully operating for over 20 years, then MagiKats could be for you.
What Is MagiKats?
MagiKats Tuition Centres are unique – they each follow the same system but also reflect the personality of the person in charge.
Every MagiKats Tuition Centre offers out of school tutoring in maths, English and reasoning, for children from pre-school to GCSE (National 5 in Scotland).
Every MagiKats Tuition Centre offers an individual programme for each of its students, ensuring they get the support they need, no matter their situation.
Every MagiKats Tuition Centre is run to certain standards and uses our bespoke, KATS online system to prepare and manage work for every individual.
Every MagiKats Tuition Centre fits into its community – tailoring its provision to the demands of local families.
What Are The Benefits of Joining the MagiKats Network?
Support. Pure and simple.
As a family business, we know how important it is that your business works for you and your family – whatever shape or form that takes. We provide a proven system and training methods to ensure you know how to deliver effective tutoring in your local area. We provide all the sales and marketing tools you need to build that business. We provide you with a single point of contact for all your questions – but at the same time access to a wide network of similarly minded individuals who are also doing what you are doing. What you provide is motivation, energy and your personality.
Potential.
Every business is unique, and every business owner has their own goals. At MagiKats, we don’t have performance targets or penalties for our smaller businesses. If that’s what we agree works for you, then that’s great. At the same time, we support those looking for a significant business opportunity operating across multiple sites. Whatever works. We just want kids to benefit from studying MagiKats.
How Do I Get Involved?
Once you enquire, then we will send you more detailed information about us and the opportunity. When you are ready, by far the best next step to take is to meet us. Only by doing that can you really understand our family, our business and our ambition. We want to meet you and discover if you are the right fit for us, and us for you. These sessions are now run online, but you are welcome to come and meet us face to face if you prefer – and you can then see our fabulous workshops in the flesh too!

What Is The Investment?
The cost of the franchise is £9,500 and you will need up to £2,500 for setup costs and equipment purchase (laptop and printer).
MagiKats believe that you should have flexibility over how you charge for the services you provide, without worrying about how that impacts on your costs. With that in mind, they do not charge an ongoing percentage based on your turnover like many franchises. Instead, they charge two types of fixed fee each month - a support fee and a materials fee.
Financing:
If you need a small business loan, MagiKats can introduce you to the franchise departments at most major banks that can, subject to status, help you with funding.
You may even qualify for a Government backed Business Start-Up Scheme loan which allows an individual to borrow up to £25,000 without having to invest any money of their own. MagiKats are more than happy to discuss this option in more detail with you.
What Territories Are Available?
We have single and multi-unit franchises available across the UK. Multi-unit franchises are currently available at a discounted rate.

MagiKats: A ready-Made Tutoring Solution
Jane Williams started MagiKats Cardiff Llandaff North 10 years ago after long career in education. She is a former head teacher and before taking on the MagiKats franchise, spent time overseas as an international school inspector and school consultant.
Jane said, “On returning to the UK, I was looking for a way to stay in education part time. MagiKats stood out because of its good, clear, continuous curriculum which is well resourced and updated. I had been a tutor in Oman for over 20 students and the prep was rather a lot so to have the programmes prepared for me to teach was a real benefit.”
It's a real family affair as Jane’s husband Andy offers administration support and her daughter Buff, a qualified teacher, works in the centre during workshops.
“I feel confident promoting MagiKats, working through the programmes set out for different ages and abilities and using the teaching methods and materials provided as we continue to have great results. A particularly proud stat we’ve achieved is a 100% pass rate for students in GCSE Maths and English! Some of the centre’s former students have also gone on to become classroom assistants for us, a fantastic testament to the experience they’ve had while studying at our centre.”
“We simply love what we do, helping to teach the next generation and giving children the confidence to do their very best at school. Every student is unique and we know that by nurturing their skills, they’ll be able to thrive throughout their education. We’ve also been able to support children with SEND and ESL needs by delivering interactive, hands-on learning and I’m incredibly happy that we’re able to offer this tailored approach to our students.”
Work-life balance
“After 45 years of working in education, I always promised myself that I would return to the teaching side at the end of my career as that’s what I like the most. A franchise really suited me as I can choose my target income and therefore how much I want to work, giving me the time I need to provide support to my elderly parents.”
Choosing a franchise business
“My advice to anyone starting out would be to do your research. There are, of course, lots of other tutors out there but because we are confident in our offering, the value for money it provides to parents, and the outcome we can achieve for a child, we’ve always been able to achieve the numbers we want from the business.”
“Anyone looking to start out shouldn’t be alarmed by the costs as there are so many benefits. The business model is not as rigid as it looks at first and the more you do, the more you will earn. If you love students, you’ll be able to develop better relationships which will lead to lots of opportunities to grow. Go with your heart and make it work for you.”
Rewarding progress
“We talk to parents as often as possible, praise students for their improvement and successes and generally have a lovely evening twice a week. We also have an annual prize giving in January which keeps parents engaged and recognises the hard work of our learners. We invite a former student to share their experience of life after school, whether that’s sixth form, college, or an apprenticeship, which provides a valuable insight for our enrolled children.”
“Many of our students are first generation in the UK and we actively support these families with books and advice in addition to the workshops. It means a lot to know we’re making a difference in our community, and that positivity feeds directly into the experience we create for our students and staff.”
