who are we
Sparks Film School Franchises
Sparks is a growing network of youth film schools for children and young people.
The first Sparks Film School opened in 2010, in South West London.
Fuelled by a passion for nurturing creativity and talent, we quickly expanded our reach. By 2016, our head office team had successfully launched six thriving film schools. However, we recognised that our mission to inspire young filmmakers couldn’t be confined to a handful of locations. To make a wider impact and reach aspiring filmmakers in every corner, we embarked on a new chapter by welcoming passionate, dedicated franchisees into our film education family.
Our community of fantastic franchise partners have played a pivotal role in our growth story, helping us to extend our reach and touch the lives of countless aspiring filmmakers all over the UK. Together, we continue to push the boundaries of film education and empower the next generation of filmmakers.
