New Delhi, [India], 23 December 2024: In a bold move to cater to the growing demand for high-quality early childhood education in India, Oxford International Preschool has announced the launch of an exclusive opportunity to offer 20 franchises across the country — without any franchise fees. This game-changing initiative aims to provide aspiring entrepreneurs and educators with the tools to run successful preschools under the prestigious Oxford International brand.
Dr. Hariprasad U., Associate Director at Oxford International Preschool, shared the exciting development during a recent press conference. “The early education sector in India is booming, and with the increasing demand for quality preschools, we are confident that this initiative will fill a gap in the market. By offering franchise opportunities without the usual hefty fees, we are empowering passionate individuals to become part of a global brand that values quality, innovation, and holistic child development,” said Dr. Hariprasad.
India’s preschool sector is experiencing significant growth, driven by rising awareness among parents about the importance of early childhood education. According to industry reports, the Indian preschool market is expected to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 10-15% over the next few years. The increasing number of working parents, coupled with a shift in societal attitudes towards early learning, has led to greater demand for quality preschools.
Oxford International Preschool, known for its child-centric approach and globally recognized curriculum, aims to cater to this burgeoning demand. The preschool chain’s focus on holistic development, blending academics with life skills and creativity, sets it apart in a highly competitive market.
Oxford International Preschool’s decision to waive franchise fees for the first 20 franchisees is a strategic move to fast-track its expansion across India. Traditionally, franchise fees can be a significant financial barrier for potential entrepreneurs. By eliminating this cost, Oxford International is making it easier for individuals with a passion for education to enter the preschool business.
“The concept of offering franchises without any upfront franchise fees is unprecedented in India,” Dr. Hariprasad explained. “This initiative is not just about expanding our brand, but about making a meaningful impact on the future of India’s children. It’s about creating a network of schools that uphold the highest standards of education and care.”
The franchise model is designed to provide comprehensive support to new business owners, including training, access to an established curriculum, operational guidance, and marketing assistance. This structure ensures that even those with limited experience in education can successfully manage and operate a preschool, backed by the expertise of Oxford International Preschool.
Franchisees who join Oxford International Preschool stand to benefit from several key advantages:
- No Franchise Fees: One of the most attractive aspects of the offer is the complete waiver of franchise fees. This significantly reduces the initial investment required to start a preschool.
- Strong Brand Recognition: Oxford International Preschool is part of a globally recognized brand, making it easier for franchisees to attract parents and establish trust in the community.
- Proven Curriculum: Franchisees will have access to Oxford International’s internationally acclaimed curriculum, which emphasizes a balanced approach to education, focusing on both academic learning and emotional intelligence.
- Comprehensive Training: From teacher training to operational guidance, franchisees will receive ongoing support to ensure the success of their preschool.
- Scalability and Growth Potential: The preschool model is designed for scalability, making it easier for franchisees to open additional centers in the future as demand grows.
Dr. Hariprasad highlighted the evolving landscape of preschool education in India. “Indian parents are becoming more discerning about their children’s education, and they are seeking preschools that offer not only academic excellence but also emotional growth, creativity, and critical thinking skills. Oxford International Preschool addresses these needs with a curriculum designed to nurture the child in a holistic manner.”
The partnership with local entrepreneurs through this franchise model will play a key role in expanding Oxford International’s reach to various parts of the country, including smaller cities and towns, where the demand for quality preschools is on the rise. The focus will be on offering high-quality, affordable education to children aged 2-6 years, which forms the foundation for their future learning journeys.
Oxford International Preschool is set to begin recruiting the first 20 franchisees in early 2025. The brand is looking for passionate, business-savvy individuals who are committed to making a positive impact on the education landscape in India. The company plans to focus on urban as well as tier-2 and tier-3 cities, where there is significant untapped potential for quality preschools.
As Oxford International Preschool looks to grow its presence across India, the opportunity to become a part of this growing movement is expected to attract a wide range of investors, educators, and entrepreneurs eager to capitalize on the booming preschool education market.
