From PE Teacher to Franchisee - Achieve Your Dreams!
PE teacher Peter Bulteel, tells us how he went from teaching in schools, to running his own Premier business; and that it really is possible to achieve your sporting dreams...
Tell us a bit about yourself and what you were doing prior to buying a franchise business?
Before I became a Premier franchise owner I had been a PE teacher for nearly 20 years. I had worked in state and private schools, and some of my roles included; Housemaster, Senior Leader and Head of Boys’ Games.

Why did you go down the franchise route? And why did you choose your franchise?
I was looking at alternatives in the Sport and Education sector and was keen to relocate to Kent. I had not seen much in the way of teaching jobs in the area and had a look at other possibilities, when I stumbled across Premier Sport. I had a few conversations with people that I knew who were familiar with the company and they all had very positive things to say. So, I took the next step and contacted Phil Gaffer. As luck would have it, there were two territories in Kent that were available and one of them became mine. I met with Phil to discuss the opportunity and really liked the idea of being my own boss in an industry that I had quite a lot of knowledge in.
How did you raise the finance?
