Business Idea: combination of tuition and sports

3 replies

I have a new business idea and need to know if there is a market for it.
Tuition and Sports Combined Course:

I currently run a tuition agency and my partner is a sports teacher;
Would it be a good idea to offer an hour of 'maths' followed by an hour of physical education? The sessions would take place on school premises.

What age - primary?

Well, it wouldn't suit my DDs. In fact most holiday clubs don't suit because of all the sport.

Why not offer an hour of maths & an hour of PE with a small discount for both so that those that want maths get maths, those that want PE get PE, and those that happen to want both get a small discount?

It would perhaps work for parents with 2 children so that one child has the maths tuition and the other has a PE session at the same time. This would mean that the parent wouldn't have to be a taxi service to 2 different venues at the same time.

I suspect the answer is not, because primary schools may want "help" for PE but are unlikely to want "help" in teaching maths.
I would suggest that you consider an alternative provision situation where you would be dealing with a low number of pupils with specific issues but where such a combination may be attractive in that it might be seen positively by such pupils.
