How it works

Four ways to learn.
One patient tutor.

Bright Spark adapts to how you want to learn — whether that's typing a maths question at 11pm, talking on a walk, or sounding out your very first letter.

01

AI tutor — chat

Type your question across Maths, Sciences, English, Psychology, CS, History, Geography, Business, Economics, RS, plus French, Spanish, Portuguese, Mandarin Chinese, German, Polish and Irish. Spark teaches Socratically: asks before it answers, shows working, and never just hands over the solution.

02

Voice mode — hands-free

Talk to your tutor like a real person. Real-time, interruptible voice powered by ElevenLabs — now in English, French, Spanish, Portuguese, Mandarin Chinese (Putonghua), German, Irish (Gaeilge) and Polish. Perfect for revision walks, the car, or eyes-closed focus.

Trust & safety

Built for schools. Trusted by parents.

Child protection and academic integrity aren't afterthoughts — they're engineered into every conversation.

Child-safe by design

Multi-layer protection built in from day one: automatic content blocking, universal safety guardrails, and clear refusal for inappropriate requests. Not bolted on — baked in.

Cannot be used for cheating

Spark teaches Socratically — guiding questions before answers. It models exam technique and shows working, but never writes essays or hands over solutions on demand.

Verified sources only

No hallucinated facts or invented links. Every source is grounded in allowlisted publishers — BBC Bitesize, exam boards, Khan Academy — with transparent citations.

Exam-board aligned

Built for AQA, Edexcel, OCR, WJEC and CCEA. Marks to assessment objectives (AO1 / AO2 / AO3) and follows each specification's exact language and structure.

Privacy-first

Conversations are ephemeral. No ads, no profiling, no data sold. What a learner asks stays between them and Spark — full stop.

Warm teacher tone

Patient, encouraging and judgment-free. Built for learners who need support, not a cold search engine. Mistakes are met with guidance, not judgment.

Speaks your language

Now in 8 languages.

Chat and voice mode both reply in the language you choose. Learn any subject in your native tongue — or learn a new language through a language you already speak.

Spark is tuned first for UK GCSE & A-Level — but the underlying model is just as comfortable with the IB, AP, Cambridge International and many of the world's major curricula. Useful for international families, expats, and any learner outside the UK system.

Why it works

Not a chatbot. A teacher.

Socratic by design

Guides you with questions before giving the answer. You learn the method, not just the result.

Exam-board literate

Knows AQA, Edexcel, OCR, WJEC. Marks work to AO1 / AO2 / AO3 and shows full working.

Honest about itself

Flags uncertainty. Recommends a human tutor when the subject deserves one.

Voice that listens

Real conversation — interruptible, patient, never rushed. Built for learners, not for demos.

From sound to sentence

The reading course is true phonics, in the order modern UK classrooms teach it.

Humans on standby

When you need a real person, our verified roster is one click away.
