About Us
Grade Power Learning
"An education franchise unlike any other in America"
Grade Power Learning is part of the Oxford Learning franchise system. Oxford is the largest, best-known and most-respected supplemental education provider in Canada. In business since 1984, Oxford has more than 100 locations across Canada. Grade Power is a partnership between the founders of Minuteman Press (the largest printing and graphics franchise in the world) and Oxford Learning. Grade Power will combine the almost 40 years of franchising experience (and several years of education experience) from Minuteman along with more than 25 years of education experience from Oxford to form a franchise unlike any other education franchise in America. A Grade Power franchise is unique in the education industry in America in that it combines cognitive learning strategies (teaching children how to learn) along with academic tutoring; a combination not found in most education franchises in America. Oxford will provide all the experience, expertise, curriculum, training and support services developed over the past 25-plus years. Minuteman, with its nationwide infrastructure and almost 40 years of franchising know-how, gives Grade Power a national presence in the form of support staff and personnel. The Grade Power franchise owner is never very far away from assistance when needed.
