Helping kids be their best selves

At Speaking Schools, our core goal is to empower as many students as possible with the skills they need to navigate a constantly changing world with confidence.

As we move past the first quarter of this century, it is clearer than ever that the skills students need are rapidly changing.

With the rise of automation and artificial intelligence, things like rote learning and even coding are becoming increasingly irrelevant to success - instead, students who are able to communicate effectively, demonstrate confidence in uncertainty and show resilience in adversity are the ones that are able to get ahead.

By joining Speaking Schools as a franchise partner, you'll have the opportunity to work with children from all walks of life, helping them build these critical skills so they are ready to adapt to whatever the future brings.

How does SSA create effective communicators?

Specialised Focus on Debating and Public Speaking Skills
We offer comprehensive programs specifically tailored to enhancing students' communication skills, with a specialised focus on debating and public speaking. We have developed our own proprietary curriculum – known as the Speaking Syllabus – which is likely the most extensive public speaking and debating resource in Australia.

Safe and Fun Learning Environments
Prioritising safety and enjoyment, we create nurturing learning environments where students feel empowered to express themselves, take risks and flourish as people. Our commitment to fostering a supportive atmosphere ensures that students can explore and develop their skills with confidence.

Experienced and Enthusiastic Coaching Team
Our coaching team consists of well-trained, experienced and passionate educators who are deeply committed to empowering their students. With their enthusiasm and expertise, they act as role models, inspire and guide students to unlock their full potential, and cultivate a love for presenting that lasts a lifetime.

Award-Winning Student-Centred Approach
We take pride in our student-centred approach, catering to small batches of students and prioritising their individual needs and aspirations.

What do we look for in a Franchise Partner?

The ideal candidate for a Speaking Schools franchise embodies a range of essential character traits crucial for success in nurturing the communication skills of school-aged children.

First and foremost, you must harbour a genuine passion for education, recognising the profound impact effective communication and debating skills can have on shaping young minds. It is crucial that you are dedicated to the holistic development of children with a focus on fostering confidence, critical thinking and leadership skills.

Alongside this passion, you should possess strong communication skills yourself and, ideally, an understanding of the debating and public speaking landscape in Australia.

Equipped with a business mindset, you should possess the initiative and creativity to effectively market the franchise, attract students and drive growth within your community.

You should be a ‘people’s person’ and be ready to actively seek partnerships with local schools and organisations to promote the value of public speaking and debating education.

You must uphold high ethical standards and professionalism and prioritise student well-being above all else.

We have been working with SSA since 2017, running the annual YouDebate competition between AUF schools.

They have been organising all the logistics for the competition, and as a result, the organisation of the competition turned out to be a breeze.

We will continue working with SSA for YouDebate and will be looking forward to other possible collaborations.
