Unicornmaths was started by Sarah Wedderburn who has considerable experience in teaching pupils who suffer from difficulties with maths. This has developed into a Studio with six teachers for the remediation of dyscalculia. From this experience Sarah has written the detailed Unicornmaths Programme to provide Sencos, learning support teachers, mainstream teachers and teachers' assistants with a cumulative programme to enable them to develop an understanding of maths in their students.
Having gained a degree in History and Psychology, Sarah qualified as a primary school teacher in 1977 and taught for a number of years in a mainstream school. She gained an RSA Diploma in Special Needs from The Hornsby International Dyslexia Centre in London in 1997 and then worked there as a tutor and lecturer for six years.
Sarah currently works as a SEN teacher in a primary school and tutors from home. She runs the Unicornmaths Studio, where she works with six colleagues teaching children who have problems with maths, and delivers Unicornmaths Courses to SEN and mainstream teachers and teachers' assistants. She delivers Insets to schools on Dyslexia, Literacy and Mathematics.
