Running an art skills teaching franchise part time while on PIp/UC?
I've been offered the chance to run my own franchise teaching Art skills online or in person with a company called Cygnet Art School, however, I'm not sure if the lessons would be in person or online, I'll do some Googling.
My question either way is would it affect my benefits? I get enhanced rate PIP and UC.

PIP, no.
UC, yes if you earn more than the Work Allowance per month.

That sounds great @SheffieldMan1976! As OverlyAnxious said, PIP isn't affected by work, but UC will be after a certain point if you're being paid. There's a bit about how work allowances and taper rates work on this page:
Would it be a self-employed position?

Like I said, it'd be running a franchise as a teacher, to be honest I don't think it's for me, I don't have the patience for all the faffery of running a Business, and I certainly don't have the patience to teach kids.
