School of Rock

About Us

For more than 20 years, School of Rock has been teaching kids and adults how to channel their inner rock stars. As educators, we’re trailblazers with our performance-based model of music instruction. Today we’re an almost 320+ unit global brand, boosting the lives of over 60,000 students in 15 countries. We continue to develop and open new schools across the world. The leadership team is comprised of a group of experienced franchise executives who are either musicians themselves or deeply passionate about music and music education.

Why We're Unique

Traditional music education approaches rarely teach students how to perform with other musicians, focusing instead on teaching music only through one-on-one lessons. The School of Rock Method is different. We combine one-on-one instruction with group rehearsals and live performances, starting students on their musical journey by teaching the songs that inspire them. This integrated SongFirst® approach teaches students techniques and theory while also helping them apply those skills when performing with other musicians. This method results in remarkable musical proficiency.

Whether you’re an experienced business executive looking to buy a franchise or a musician looking to build your first business venture, we’ve built up an incredible support team to provide you with everything you need to build your business.

Ideal Franchisee

School of Rock is the best franchise to buy for those with a passion for music, a love of children, and a willingness to give back to their community.

An ideal School of Rock franchisee candidate believes in our brand and our mission of providing a safe space for students to develop into musicians. Successful candidates must believe in their ability to run and own a franchise. They ask the right questions in order to succeed. They must also be able to work within the School of Rock process, especially for the first year or two.
