What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Creative World School's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, once the franchisor has approved the franchisee's Construction Plans, the franchisee may not modify or alter them without obtaining prior approval from Creative World School.
This stipulation is important for prospective franchisees as it means they must adhere strictly to the approved Construction Plans. Any deviations without prior authorization from Creative World School are not permitted. This requirement ensures that all Creative World School locations maintain a consistent brand image and meet the franchisor's standards for design and functionality.
This requirement also means that franchisees need to carefully consider and finalize their Construction Plans before submitting them for approval. Any changes needed after approval will require additional communication and approval from the franchisor, which could potentially cause delays in the construction and opening of the school. Franchisees should factor in time for thorough planning and review to minimize the need for post-approval modifications.
