About this business
A modern languages school in suburban Aberdeen, opened in 2024 in leased premises. It runs classes in European and Asian languages for adults, tuition for pupils sitting exams, and courses for staff heading abroad with local employers. Turnover has grown from £533k in the first year to £600k, and EBITDA from £82k to £102k. A team of 10 tutors and administrators runs the timetable. It is a young business that has grown quickly, and a buyer would inherit a lease, a working timetable and room to add more corporate courses.
