SPARK History

SPARK was created in 2007 with a specific objective to provide one-​to-​one teaching to support young people who were struggling with mainstream education — particularly focusing on excluded ones and NEETs.

Outside school times including After school, at weekends and in the holidays, the Centre serves as a community learning resource where young people can join in both Educational and ‘Fun’ activities, thus improving their social skills as well as their academic skills.

Over time, while still retaining its support for school age learners, SPARK has developed a range of services to promote Employability skills for young adults Not in Employment, Education or Training (NEETs) by providing Functional skills tests.

The Education Centre is equipped with technology that supports a number of leading IT based teaching packages covering literacy, numeracy and science. We also offer specialist IT training to the IT Professionals in IT Training Courses in Cisco, Microsoft, VMware
