That old saying, that “if you love your job, you’ll never work a day in your life”, is obviously not meant to be taken literally.
Hard work is essential in almost every role, but if you find a career that you are passionate about, then the work won't feel like a grind. Thankfully, the ever-growing edutainment industry is allowing more and more people to join the dots between their passions and their job.
One key member of this industry is School of Rock, who are helping students throughout the world achieve their dreams to become performing musicians. For those of you unfamiliar with the franchise, School of Rock is a unique leader in performance-based education.
It is popular with music lovers, as it combines weekly one-on-one lessons with structured group rehearsals that culminate in a live performance in front of real crowds in real rock venues.
With over 170 schools all over the globe, it is unsurprising that the School of Rock success story is gaining a huge amount of momentum.
Here are just five reasons you should consider investing in a School of Rock franchise.
Making a Real Difference
Music makes a difference in people’s lives and School of Rock has been at the forefront of that change for countless students.
With schools in North and South America, Africa and Asia Pacific, it’s not an overstatement to say that this is a franchise that is making melodies from one end of the world to the other. It is not only about the music; School of Rock students develop the tools to successfully navigate difficult challenges and be more productive in their everyday lives too.
By engaging creative people with their goals, you will not only be contributing to the arts, you will also be helping students improve their lives.
Training that works
You don’t need to be a musician to run a successful School of Rock franchise, as the training they deliver to investors is second to none.
The support doesn’t stop when you open either, as there is continued developmental and PR support. Not to mention, ongoing product and program development, that will ensure that your business is always becoming stronger and more innovative.
Internationally Renowned With Brilliant Partners
The list of excellent partnerships School of Rock has made with top industry organizations is extensive.

That is just one of the many excellent partnerships that School of Rock has carved out over its 20 plus years of being a leader in performance-based music education.
