Driven by its mission to inspire a passion for learning and ignite lifelong growth, Spark Education focuses on education for students aged 3-12, cultivating a love of learning from a young age and shaping the trajectory of their lifelong growth. Balwyn, where the offline learning center is located, and Spark match well because it is home to several high-quality institutions including Balwyn High School, Balwyn Primary School, Fintona Girls’ School, Camberwell Grammar School, and Carey Baptist Grammar School, among many others, and is a hub that attracts families seeking not just a residence, but a community deeply invested in education.
Wilson Li, Spark Education CFO and GM of Global Offline Business, commented in his speech on the day: “In 2018, we launched our first class with the goal of improving the learning experience and outcomes for children with the help of technology, and we have continued to pursue this goal, helping students around the world discover the joy of learning. We have chosen Melbourne not only for its rich educational landscape but also for the community that values educational quality. Our new learning center here in Balwyn is testament to our commitment to student-centricity and providing the best learning experience and highest quality education globally.”
Spark will initially launch Spark Math and Spark Chinese courses in the new directly operated offline learning center in Melbourne with plans to introduce other high-quality courses, including Spark Coding and Spark Chess, that will enrich the learning experience for students in Australia as it has done in many other countries to date.
Concurrent with this launch, Spark Education begins to offer its comprehensive licensing solution for partners such as afterschool programs and child care centers in Australia and New Zealand regions and beyond.
