"I am naturally a risk averse person, who can suffer from imposter syndrome at times. Investing in a franchise was not something I ever thought I would have the confidence to do. However, as soon as I made contact with Richard and spoke to Deborah I knew, without any doubt, that this was the correct path for me to take. There was certainly no hard sell. Just a simple sharing of an ideology that I knew I wanted to be part of. The resourcing is exceptional - every detail thought of - like most teachers I think I am a bit addicted to resources and stationery so this is just heaven! I will be like a child on Christmas morning on drop off day.
