Why we created Sparks Connect
Support requests, events and family information can become scattered across messages and forms. Sparks Connect helps keep them together so families and the CHILD SPARKS team can follow up without starting again each time.
For parents and carers
- Keep information about your child’s strengths, interests and needs together
- Record goals and progress where those features are being used
- Request support and follow responses
- Find CHILD SPARKS activities, resources and updates
Not every family will use every feature. Use the parts that are relevant to your family.

Build on what works
Over time, keep important information together and build on progress rather than starting again each time.
Your family’s information matters
Sparks Connect contains information about children and families, so privacy and safeguarding are built into how the platform works. Access is controlled according to a person's role and relationship with the family. We aim to collect information for a clear purpose, limit access to people who need it and keep an appropriate record of how information is used.
Families can find more detail in the Privacy Policy and in the privacy information provided during registration.
