Join the UK’s leading children’s computing franchise…Prepare children for the future with fun and exciting tech clubs
ComputerXplorers delivers the widest range of fun, educational and inspirational technology and computing classes across the UK.
Classes are delivered in a range of locations including nurseries, schools, holiday clubs, after-school clubs, weekend clubs and other community venues.
We teach children not only what’s behind the technology, but build in critical thinking, collaboration, communication, creativity and confidence.
Our extensive range of coding classes are enormously popular and we have even more great tech activities besides! These are just some of the courses we offer – 3D design and printing, augmented reality, app design, digital arts, animation, game design, robotics, engineering, electronics and the latest Minecraft skills – as well as all of our coding courses, of course!
When that chance to make a difference to children’s futures is wrapped up in a business opportunity with such low costs, high potential earnings and flexibility it’s a powerful combination.
From Franchisee to CEO
The possibilities are boundless, and if you possess determination, passion, and ambition, the rewards are limitless, a journey our CEO, Stuart Harley, knows well.
With 15 years of expertise in business and development and a cherished young family to provide for, Stuart found his calling in franchising. It offered the flexibility he sought, enabling him to strike a harmonious work-life balance. But, more importantly, it allowed him to channel his unyielding determination and boundless creativity into a cause he holds dear: preparing children for a future driven by technology, offering them the chance to thrive.
Stuart’s journey began by managing the Southampton branch of ComputerXplorers for two transformative years. Under his visionary leadership, it flourished, eventually becoming the largest ComputerXplorers franchise in the network. Then, in 2021, an opportunity beckoned, and Stuart seized it with unwavering enthusiasm, purchasing the brand from The Bardon Group.
Stuart is, at heart, like any parent. He envisions a world where his children, and all children, have access to the finest technology for their educational journeys. He passionately believes that every child should enjoy this privilege, which is why he is at the helm of a company that equips the next generation with this vital skill set. It’s a perfect match, a shared vision that drives us forward!

The role of a ComputerXplorers franchisee
You will be responsible for managing and marketing the business. That means you will be marketing to and meeting with head teachers, nursery owners, and holiday programme leaders. You will recruit, train and manage a team of people to deliver the classes on your behalf.
What’s our market?
The market is HUGE as the need for children to develop computing skills is now widely recognised.
Fluency and familiarity with computers and technology is essential to nurture the future digital generation and ensure that today’s children become creators of technology and not just passive consumers of it.
Demand is exploding as educators and parents recognise the value of these skills…and of course, the children are having so much fun they don’t notice how much they are learning!
How much can I earn?
Earnings are very much down to the individual franchisee with the hours they are prepared to invest, together with their drive and ambition. Franchisees have the flexibility to choose the hours that suit them.
Franchisees who have the drive and determination to push themselves and the business forward can earn a substantial income. Franchisees have the potential to earn in excess of £60,000 in year 1.
