Leaving the classroom does not mean leaving your purpose behind. For many educators, the pull to support children’s emotional and mental wellbeing never fades. But what if you could continue to make an impact, without the relentless pressures of school systems?

That is where the Big Little Spark licence comes in.

Why experienced educators still want to make a difference

If you have spent years managing teams, working with families, leading wellbeing initiatives and navigating budgets, your skills extend far beyond teaching. Those strengths do not disappear when you step away from the classroom.

Yet too often, the system makes it harder to focus on what matters most: supporting children’s emotional growth. Instead of meaningful work, days are filled with paperwork and firefighting. The licence model offers another path.

Supporting children, with more freedom

With a Big Little Spark licence you can deliver practical, calming wellbeing sessions in schools, nurseries and communities across the UK. Children learn proven strategies that support resilience, confidence and self-awareness.

This is not about stepping into a rigid structure, it is about having a ready-made framework — session plans, marketing resources and bitesize training — that you can shape to fit your life and ambitions.

Is this the right fit for you?

The Big Little Spark licence is designed to be flexible and practical. You do not need to be a business expert, you just need the motivation to make a difference.

What helps is having:

• Experience working with or supporting children
• Confidence to share ideas with schools and groups
• An organised, proactive approach to planning your own sessions

It is less about running a big operation, and more about using ready-made tools and training to create something meaningful in your own community.

Real flexibility, real responsibility

Yes, the licence offers flexibility, but it is not a shortcut. You set your schedule, choose how you grow, and take responsibility for reaching your goals.

The educators and professionals who thrive are those who see this as their next chapter, combining purpose with independence.

What success can look like

With Big Little Spark, success is defined by you. Some licensees deliver sessions solo, others add it to existing services, and some build towards wider community programmes. What unites them is the confidence that their work makes a lasting difference to children.

The support behind you

You will not be starting from zero. Big Little Spark provides:

• Engaging, ready-to-use session plans
• Marketing templates to save time
• Online training and CPD mini modules
• A trusted framework tested in schools

You bring the drive. We give you the tools.
