Creative_World_School Franchise · 2025 FDDAnswer from 2025 FDD Document
You must operate and develop your School according to our System Standards. System Standards may regulate, among other things, the size of your School, learning products and services, equipment, curricula, lesson plans, educational programs, business formats, methods, procedures, designs, layouts, signs and equipment. These specifications include standards for delivery, performance, design and appearance. Currently, you are required to purchase 95% of the furniture, equipment and products necessary to operate your School from our affiliate, Discount Preschool, and those items meet our specifications and standards. Our Manuals contain our System Standards. We will periodically make available to you any modifications to our Manuals, including any specifications that have been issued or modified. You are not currently required to purchase any food products/supplies from Discount Preschool.

What This Means (2025 FDD)
Based on the 2025 Creative World School FDD excerpts, the specific location where the required operating hours are detailed is not explicitly stated. However, Item 8 mentions that franchisees must operate their school according to Creative World School's System Standards. These System Standards may regulate various aspects of the school's operation, including business formats, methods, and procedures. Item 8 also states that the System Standards are found in the manuals, which are periodically updated.
Given this information, it is highly probable that the required operating hours for a Creative World School franchise are specified within the System Standards detailed in the manuals. These manuals contain the specific guidelines and regulations that franchisees must adhere to in operating their schools.
A prospective franchisee should confirm with Creative World School exactly where the required operating hours are specified within the franchise agreement or related documents. Specifically, they should ask to review the section of the manuals that outlines the System Standards to understand the required operating hours and any flexibility or restrictions that may apply.
