For Schools
Designed for how schools actually work.
Spark is built for school leaders who want to run real innovation programs — not just add another curriculum binder to the shelf. Every feature is designed around the operational realities of K-12 schools in Canada.
Why schools choose Spark
Existing providers sell curriculum. Spark sells program operations — the infrastructure that helps schools actually run innovation programs, not just teach about entrepreneurship.
Educator enablement, not just content
Spark gives educators the facilitation guides, rubrics, and step-by-step tools they need to run programs confidently — even if they have never started a business themselves.
Repeatable school execution
The Program Planner ensures your school can run the same high-quality program year after year, with new cohorts, new educators, and new students — without starting from scratch.
Real student outcomes
Students do not just learn about entrepreneurship — they build ventures, pitch to real judges, and compete for real micro-grant funding. Spark makes the outcomes tangible.
Built for Canadian schools
Spark is designed for the Canadian K-12 context, including provincial curriculum alignment, Canadian business examples, and support for French-language programs.
No IT complexity
Spark is a web-based subscription platform. No installation, no IT tickets, no LMS integration required. Educators and students can be onboarded in under an hour.
Reporting for accountability
Generate participation reports, venture pipeline summaries, and outcome data for principals, school boards, and grant applications — in minutes, not days.
What implementation looks like
Most schools are running their first cohort within 4-6 weeks of signing up. Here is what the typical rollout looks like.

Ongoing
Program execution
