Marion Golding is lead teacher of the Rainbow Centre.  She is an experienced, fully qualified specialist teacher with an honours degree in education, where the particular emphasis was on special education across the age range.  Her interest in special education needs led her to study at a later date for a post-graduate Diploma in Specific Learning Difficulties. This covered areas such as dyslexia, dyspraxia, dyscalculia, and speech, language and communication impairment.

Marion began her teaching career working in two LEA Special Schools, firstly with children with severe learning difficulties and then with children with profound and multiple learning difficulties. Whilst spending time at home bringing up her children, Marion worked in an independent Nursery School and then began supporting a child with learning difficulties within a mainstream class of a local prep school.
