The Goyal Foundation’s Inner Spark programme offers FREE workshops to primary and secondary schools in disadvantaged areas to help develop pupils’ life skills and positive mindsets.
Our workshops are delivered by inspirational speakers and our partner organisations. The free workshops deliver a range of benefits and outcomes for children and young people, teachers and schools in promoting learning and development and meeting Ofsted criteria.

Since 2021, we have reached 168,301 young people through our workshops in schools and through our partners. But this is just the start, by 2030 we aim to empower one million minds.
Positive Mindset Workshops
We believe every young person deserves to thrive. Yet, many face barriers like mental health struggles, academic inequality, and low resilience. Through our free, high impact workshops, we equip students with confidence, emotional well-being,
and essential life skills. Since launching Inner Spark we have reached 168,301 students across 170 schools, offering free workshops to schools where at least 20% of students receive free school meals.
86% of students gave their workshop a top rating; 79% said it increased their confidence and self-belief; and 83% said it gave them a more positive outlook about their opportunities and future plans.
Our most popular workshop, HAPPINESS, is presented by the country’s fastest growing inspirational presenter, Jermaine Harris. Jermaine is training several other presenters to increase our reach. We also offer a range of other workshops – from yoga and meditation to addressing issues like dementia and menstrual education.
Our delivery partner for our workshops in schools is Working Options in Education. They promote our workshops, arrange sessions with presenters and schools, and gather feedback from students and teachers. They share our ambitions to reach more students in 2025 and beyond.
