Education at Spark
Learning That Lasts a Lifetime
At Spark Education Trust, our approach to education is built around a single, powerful idea: Learning for Life.
We believe every young person deserves more than just qualifications – they deserve an education that unlocks ambition, builds confidence, and prepares them to shape the future.
Curriculum Entitlement – Passport for Life
We aim to prepare learners for the future through a broad and ambitious curriculum, enrichment opportunities, and high-quality teaching, we ensure every pupil is equipped to flourish in life, learning and work.
It ensures all children and young people in our schools develop the knowledge, skills, and attributes they need to thrive, and become an active citizen in an ever-changing world.
We believe that education happens within and beyond the classroom. Every Spark school offers a programme of enrichment experiences – from creative arts to outdoor learning, leadership, volunteering, and more. At Spark, we proudly call these experiences our “Passport for Life”.
Great teachers and leaders drive great schools
that’s why we offer tailored, strategic development at every career stage including

Career Development Programme – Growing Great Educators
At Spark, we invest in our people as much as our pupils. Our Career Development Programmes are designed to support staff at every career stage – from early careers to experienced leaders.
We believe in nurturing ambition and unlocking potential through two distinct development strands:
- Bright Sparks – A progressive training pathway for those aspiring to take their next step in school leadership. This strand empowers future leaders to build confidence, expand their impact, and step boldly into their next chapter.
- SparkEd – A professional development offer for those who want to deepen their expertise and master their craft in the classroom. This is about raising the bar, modelling excellence, and creating outstanding learning experiences.
These programmes span both primary and secondary and are tailored to meet the real-world demands of a modern, evolving profession.
