Background / History of the Business

  • Created from a fathers desire to help his child achieve more than the schooling system could offer, Kumon has grown from strength to strength since Mr Toru Kumon first gave his son Takeshi his own designed worksheets over 50 years ago. The Kumon Institute of Education was established in Osaka in 1958 and attracted 3000 students in its first year alone. In no time, word spread beyond the city and new centres were established all over Japan. In South Africa, the first Kumon Centre was opened in 1991, and in 1992 Kumon South Africa began its franchising operations with 7 centres opening in the Gauteng area. In 1993 the number of centres was extended to Cape Town, and in 1994 we saw our first Cape Town centres opening.

  • In order to promote growth, as well as maximise the potential to bring Kumon to an ever-increasing number of students in South Africa, Kumon Education South Africa, (Pty) Ltd was established on the 1st of March 1997. It is a fully owned subsidiary of Kumon Japan.

  • Over 50 years’ experience – a tried and tested company with a wealth of franchising and educational knowledge.

  • KUMON is the largest independent education provider in the world with over 4 million currently enrolled worldwide.

  • A proven method of learning that has benefitted millions of children worldwide.

  • On-going training and support provided to our franchisees.

  • On-going development and improvement of the Kumon programme.

  • Over 23,000 students currently studying on the Kumon programme in South Africa – more than any other supplementary education programme in South Africa.

  • Over 200 Franchises in South Africa.

  • An internationally recognised brand.
