SPA At Your School

  • The Super Power Agency works with primary and secondary schools just like yours. Our programmes are designed, tried and tested, to get young people excited about writing.

    We work to support your curriculum goals, through in classroom workshops and our superpower volunteers come fully stocked with ideas, encouragement and enthusiasm.

    The majority of our projects result in a final published work (e.g. book, magazine or chapbook) that students can take home as a lasting record of their accomplishments.

    Interested in having the Super Power Agency work with your school or community organisation?

  • As a teacher of mathematics, some may wonder why I chose to be involved with the Super Power Agency with their main focus being on literacy. As soon as I became aware of them, everything they stood for resonated with me and who I am as a teacher. ‘Exposure to a world of aspiration’ was something I wanted to be part of.
