Rob Jennings

Rob is the co-founder of The Dyscalculia Network, an organisation that provides training and advice for teachers and parents supporting pupils with maths difficulties.

He has over 15 years’ experience teaching young people with special educational needs. Over the past decade, he has specialised in supporting children who struggle with maths, working across both independent and state schools.

Rob is a member of the CRESTED Council, where he represents issues relating to dyscalculia and maths difficulties across specialist schools throughout the UK.

He holds an OCR Level 5 Diploma in Teaching Learners with Specific Learning Difficulties (Distinction) from Helen Arkell. He is also co-author of The Maths Difficulties and Dyscalculia Assessment, published by Jessica Kingsley Publishers in July 2025. This assessment is unique in that it not only measures scoring accuracy but also explores the strategies and techniques learners use when tackling key areas of foundational maths.

Rob has delivered presentations at a wide range of educational exhibitions and has worked with schools, colleges, and universities both across the UK and internationally.
