Sparks Film School for Ages 5-18

Why a Sparks Film School Franchise?

Sparks is a growing network of youth film schools for children and young people.

We opened our first youth film school in 2010, in South West London. Word quickly spread and by 2016 Sparks had grown to six youth film schools owned and operated by our Head Office team. 

We introduced film school franchise partners to our network. It’s our goal to offer our unique filmmaking courses and provide opportunity to children all over the UK. 

There are now 30+ Sparks film school franchises, with more set to launch this year. 

Each film school franchise offers a unique business opportunity. You’ll join the leading brand in film and media activities for children and young people. There is fantastic financial potential too.

We provide full training in all aspects of running a Sparks Film School. This includes how to teach our programme of youth film classes and holiday camps, as well as all the details on how to run a Sparks Film School franchise business. 

The franchise training includes an initial programme of 10 days. Training takes place mostly online, with 2 in-person practical training days. 

There is also plenty of support along the way. We host regular networking and training events, access to ongoing, dedicated support from Sparks Head Office, group meet-ups and more.
