The questions we tend to ask for the Franchisor Q&A's are listed below but if there are any others you feel you'd like to include as well, please do so. If you could answer the questions in detail and send them back over to me in a word document, that would be great.

· How is Jam Coding different from other similar franchises in the UK?

What makes Jam Coding different is that we're not simply running after-school coding clubs. We have built a complete digital education ecosystem that supports schools, children, families and communities. Our multi-award-winning curriculum is designed specifically for primary-aged children and is aligned with the needs of modern education.

We also offer multiple revenue streams, including school workshops, curriculum-based study, after-school clubs, holiday programmes and our newest product; Computing Labs, creating a scalable business model with strong recurring income opportunities. Most importantly, we're helping address a genuine national need by equipping children with the digital skills required to thrive in the future using lessons and activities that motivate and encourage them to take their studies further.

· What is your biggest achievement at Jam Coding so far?

Without doubt, our biggest achievement has been the impact we've had on children. Since launching, we've helped hundreds of thousands of young people develop confidence in technology, creativity, problem-solving and digital literacy. In 2025 alone, we delivered digital sessions to over 400,000 young people.

From a business perspective, I'm incredibly proud that we've grown from a single vision into an internationally recognised education company with franchise partners across the UK, supporting

schools and communities every day. Seeing children become excited about technology and watching franchisees build successful businesses with real purpose is hugely rewarding.

· What is the best feedback you have heard about your brand?

The feedback that means the most to me is when teachers tell us we've transformed their perception of digital education and as a result children’s attitude to learning about the subject. We regularly hear stories about children who lacked confidence discovering a talent for coding, robotics or digital creativity through our programmes.

Equally, hearing franchisees say that joining Jam Coding has given them both a successful business and a genuine sense of purpose reinforces everything we're trying to achieve. We're not just teaching coding; we're helping to shape the futures of the children we teach and adults who have become part of our growing network.

· Why would you recommend Jam Coding to people wanting to open a franchise?

I would recommend Jam Coding because it offers something many franchise opportunities don't: a proven business model combined with genuine social impact. Franchisees can build a profitable, scalable business while making a meaningful difference in their local communities.

You don't need a teaching background or technical expertise to succeed. What you need is the desire to build a strong business and a passion for helping young people fulfil their potential. We provide the systems, curriculum, training and ongoing support to help franchisees succeed.

· What qualities does the ideal franchisee possess?

Our most successful franchisees share three key qualities: drive, leadership and a passion for making a difference.

They don't necessarily come from education or technology backgrounds. Many have previously worked in completely different sectors. What matters is that they're motivated, comfortable building relationships and communicating with others, are committed to high standards and quality delivery and excited about helping children develop future-ready skills.

· How long does the process of starting a Jam Coding franchise take?

The exact timeframe can vary depending on individual circumstances, but our onboarding process is designed to get franchisees up and running as efficiently as possible. From initial discovery conversations through training and launch, we work closely with every new partner to ensure they're fully prepared and confident before entering their territory.

Because we provide proven systems, technology, curriculum resources and operational support, franchisees can begin building relationships with schools much faster than if they were starting an education business from scratch.

· How much support and training is offered to your franchisees?

Support is one of the foundations of our franchise model. We provide comprehensive initial training, access to the Jam Coding Academy, operational resources, curriculum materials, business systems and ongoing guidance.

Our franchisees benefit from regular review meetings, marketing support, mentoring and access to a network of experienced franchise partners. We are genuinely invested in their success because when they succeed, more children benefit from high-quality digital education.

· In what ways do you help Jam Coding franchisees achieve a healthy work-life balance?

One of the strengths of the Jam Coding model is its flexibility. Franchisees can start lean and grow at their own pace, choosing whether they want to remain hands-on or develop a larger team around them.

Our systems, curriculum and technology help reduce administration and streamline operations, allowing franchisees to focus on growth and delivery rather than constantly reinventing processes. Many of our partners appreciate the ability to build a meaningful business while maintaining control over their schedules and lifestyle goals.

· Is there anything you would like to add?

At Jam Coding, we believe we're doing much more than teaching children digital skills. We're helping to prepare the next generation for a rapidly changing world while creating rewarding business opportunities for our franchise partners.

For anyone considering a franchise, my advice is simple: choose a business that combines commercial potential with genuine purpose. If you're passionate about making a difference and want to build something you're proud of, Jam Coding could be the perfect fit. Together, we can teach the future.
