Dyscalculia support tools for education and work

Dyscalculia is a difference in how people process numerical information, affecting maths, number sense, time and everyday tasks that carry a numerical load.

Our dyscalculia support tools and accommodations remove those barriers, so students and employees can engage with numbers on their own terms and show what they are truly capable of.

Dyscalculia software for students and children

For students with dyscalculia, everyday tasks like working with numbers, following multi-step calculations, telling the time and interpreting data can be genuinely challenging - and exhausting before the learning has even begun.

Our education software helps reduce that effort, giving students a way to work with math that suits them.

For students with dyscalculia working with maths, Equatio provides different ways to express mathematical thinking.

Key dyscalculia support features:

  • Speech input for maths, so students can create expressions without writing or recalling notation
  • Multiple input methods giving students control over how they engage with mathematical content
  • Text-to-speech for maths notation to support reading and understanding
  • Visual equation building that helps students see mathematical relationships rather than memorise them
  • Desmos graph creator for interactive, visual exploration of maths concepts

Dyscalculia support for adults in the workplace

Numerical information is part of most working environments - budgets, deadlines, data, schedules. For adults with dyscalculia, that constant presence can create real barriers to doing their best work.

Our workplace solutions help remove those barriers, so employees can contribute fully without numbers getting in the way.

Everway for Work

Everway for Work brings together Read&Write, MindView and Tasks in one workplace solution, covering the range of challenges dyscalculia can present in professional settings.

Read&Write for Work

Supports employees to manage the written demands of work. Where processing documents or reports is effortful, text-to-speech provides an easier route. Where communication is slowed by the need to handle numerical information accurately, reading and writing support tools reduce that friction.

MindView

Helps employees plan and organise visually. For people who find linear timelines or number-heavy schedules difficult to work with, mapping tasks and priorities visually is a more natural fit.

Tasks

Brings everything into one clear view. Rather than holding deadlines and priorities in memory, employees can see what needs attention and when - reducing the mental load that comes with managing a busy working day.

Why dyscalculia accommodations matter

Dyscalculia is not a reflection of intelligence or ability. With the right support in place, students and employees with dyscalculia can access learning and work in ways that reflect what they are genuinely capable of.

The right accommodations don't change expectations - they change how people are able to meet them. That distinction matters. It is the difference between inclusion as an afterthought and neuroinclusion by design.

Our approach to dyscalculia support is:

Designed around the person. Dyscalculia is one part of how someone thinks, not a definition of what they can do. We start with the individual, not the diagnosis.

Built into the tools. Neuroinclusion only works when it is part of how things are designed from the start. Our products reduce numerical barriers as a matter of course.

Beneficial for all. When environments support different ways of processing numbers, more people benefit. That is not a side effect - it is the point.

Dyscalculia support FAQs

Yes. Dyscalculia is a lifelong difference. While it is often identified during school years, the challenges it presents continue into adulthood in different forms. Managing finances, meeting deadlines, reading data and navigating number-heavy tasks at work can all be affected. Our tools are built to support people at every stage of life, from the classroom to the workplace.

If your child consistently struggles with number recall, telling the time, handling money or following multi-step maths problems, dyscalculia support tools may help - with or without a formal diagnosis. Our tools are designed to reduce the effort of working with numbers, so children can engage with maths in a way that works for them. If you are unsure where to start, get in touch and we can help.

Dyscalculia is typically identified through a formal assessment carried out by an educational psychologist or specialist assessor. The process looks at how someone processes numerical information alongside other cognitive factors. A formal diagnosis is not always necessary to access support - many of our tools are available to anyone who finds working with numbers difficult.

Common signs include difficulty remembering number facts, trouble telling the time, struggling with mental arithmetic, losing track of scores or sequences, and finding tasks like handling money or reading timetables more effortful than expected. Signs can look different at different ages and in different settings.

Assistive technology for dyscalculia focuses on reducing the effort of working with numbers and mathematical content. Equatio allows students and employees to type, speak or draw maths expressions digitally, removing the reliance on written notation. Read&Write supports reading and comprehension of written instructions and word problems. Together they address the range of ways dyscalculia can affect learning and work.

Useful accommodations include tools that support reading and processing of numerical documents, visual planning software for organising tasks and priorities, and task management systems that reduce reliance on memory for sequencing and deadlines. Everway for Work brings these together through Read&Write, MindView and Tasks, covering the day-to-day demands of professional life.

Yes. Our products integrate with the platforms most commonly used in education and work, including Google Workspace, Microsoft Office, web browsers, learning management systems such as Canvas and Schoology, and communication tools like Microsoft Teams. They work across Windows, Mac, Chromebook, iOS and Android.
