Gwyn Singleton nee Gwynifer Begbie,(1933–2021) was a Scottish pioneer of educational support for dyslexia.
[2] Born Gwynifer Begbie in Edinburgh 1933, to mother Ena Davis-Jones, a teacher and her father J. Mouland Begbie, the leader of the BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra, she also had a sister Margot.
[2] The family moved to Glasgow where she attended Laurel Bank School and Jordanhill Teacher Training College.
[2] She moved to Newcastle, teaching at Nunnykirk specialist school with her new partner David Moseley,[3] and together they published a spelling dictionary, designed for dyslexic children and created associated freely available worksheets,[4] which were commended by the Dyslexia Association.
This became a recommended resource for use in Scottish education authorities, with Stirling Council including it in its "advice and good practice in supporting dyslexia".
