Our leadership course
Leading your Life
Student Leadership
At Spark School, all the students have the opportunity to take on leadership roles. We encourage and support students to discover their voice, and their character. Students have the opportunity to explore and take the initiative in leading their projects, knowing that we are there to support them.
Students can translate the principles from the Leader in Me courses into real-life through various means in SPARK. They can take part in IDEAS Student Societies: Internationalism, Democracy, Environment, Adventure, and Service.
Apart from personal development, all leadership roles become part of our students’ portfolios, showing evidence of their development as people with effectiveness. This becomes especially important when applying for university and having to stand out from thousands of applicants. A strong portfolio can be the key to being admitted to top universities in the world.
