Spark 11+for young adults

Start
SESSION-ONLY · NOTHING IS STORED

Grown-up skills,
practised safely first.

Spark 11+ is the SEND strand for young adults. Buses that get cancelled, bills that arrive, appointments to book, group chats to read, work to turn up for — rehearsed in fourteen honest modules and thirteen arcade games. No cartoons. No baby stuff. Nobody is watching or recording.

The stuff nobody quite teaches you

Every module is a real situation with real choices and blunt feedback — the kind a good support worker gives, not a cartoon reward screen.

Travel that goes wrongRead the timetable, spot the cancellation, reroute without panicking, work out who to ask.
Money and billsDirect debits, contracts, subscriptions you forgot, and a monthly budget that actually balances.
Appointments and adminBook the GP, survive the queue, order a prescription, fill the form without freezing.
Work readinessA ten-step work-experience week, payslip checks, and an About Me card to hand your employer.
Reading the roomTone, sarcasm, jokes at someone's expense — and what to do when you've misread it.
Speaking upAsking for what you need, saying you don't understand, disagreeing without a row.
BoundariesNo is enough. Pressure dressed as sulking. Trusting the uneasy feeling and telling someone.
Kitchen and homeOrder of operations, hot things, washing labels, and clearing up before it becomes a job.

Then there's the arcade

Thirteen games with lives, streaks and high scores — money under pressure, tone-reading against the clock, scam-spotting, recycling, staying calm when everything's loud. It looks like a console. It's travel training, budgeting and safeguarding.

Built with dignity as the default

Nothing is stored
One adult account holds the subscription — the young person needs no login, and no scores or answers are ever saved. Close the tab and it's gone.
Read-aloud on everything
Every scenario can be spoken out loud, so reading never blocks the skill.
Plain English mode
One tap swaps nine modules to shorter, simpler wording — same situations, less load.
Printables, not dashboards
Passport, regulation plan and progress record print straight out for reviews and EHCP evidence.

Open to every young person.

Every module, every game — no account, no card, no trial countdown. Provision for older SEND learners is thin enough already.

Everything included
  • All 14 modules — money & bills, appointments, work readiness, boundaries, cooking, speaking up
  • All 13 arcade games, timed and zen modes
  • Printable Passport, regulation plan and session progress record
  • Read-aloud and Plain English on everything
  • New modules and games as they land

Session-only — nothing a young person does here is saved, and outputs are printed.

Practise the hard bits first

Open a module, get it wrong somewhere safe, and find out why. That's the whole idea.
