Spence captained England in the 2007 FIFA U-17 World Cup, first time the country had reached the World Cup finals at this age group.

On 20 November 2007, Spence captained the England U18 team in a 2–0 victory over Ghana. He made his first appearance for the England U19 team in their 6–0 victory over Romania, a month before, on 14 October.

In the 2008–09 season, Spence continued to be involved with the England under-19 team, helping them to qualify for the UEFA U19 Championships in the summer of 2009, in which they finished runners up. In March 2011, Spence made his England U21 debut in a 2–1 defeat by Iceland. He has captained the England national team at every youth level.
