What is Spark Northumberland?
Spark Northumberland is a curriculum-led careers platform bringing local employers into primary classrooms across the county. Through short, child-friendly videos filmed on site, teachers can bring the world of work into lessons mapped to what children are already studying.
Developed by Connect Northumberland and Spark Futures, it links classroom learning to real workplaces through videos filmed with Northumberland employers. Spark is part of a range of engagement opportunities available to schools in Northumberland with the employer community, co-created with education and using the latest research.
