Spark Learning was founded by Natasha Gray in 2008 in Barbados. Natasha lived in Florida for over 10 years and decided to return to Barbados and continue working with children with learning disabilities. After relocating she noticed that a high percentage of children were unable to read, undiagnosed and struggling in school with very little support.

Our Mission
Quite simply, our mission is to change the way persons with learning disabilities are viewed and taught.
As a company we strive to advocate for inclusive education. We are committed to helping all children achieve their true academic potential.
It is our responsibility to speak on behalf of those who cannot speak for themselves. As such, as a team we strive to educate parents, teachers and the general public that children with learning disabilities are intelligent; they simply learn differently.
It is our goal to help children reach their full potential. However, we also have a role to play in helping our team members, educational partners and peers achieve excellence as well.
To help children achieve their full potential, it is paramount that we create a welcoming inclusive environment. Not only in our physical space but also our personalities, our words, our actions and our attitudes.
Children learn differently and as an advocate and facilitator of excellence, we must practice what we preach and embrace the different learning styles, abilities and personalities of our students.
As we help our students unlock their potential we must be inspirational agents in their lives. We must help them to grow as students and as individuals.
It is our job to impart knowledge to our students but we must also endeavour to share knowledge with our team members, peers and the general public.
