Guinea Pig Education publishes an exciting range of 'BOOSTER' books that build on skills taught in the classroom and boost grades.

Our books set out to re-educate young learners that reading and writing are not dull, but rather REWARDING and SATISFYING.

We want learning to be fun; and we want all children to love learning, reading and writing. Our books are written around what the children we teach are interested in and inspired by.

Guinea Pig Education is a family run business headed by Sally Anne Wake Jones, and her daughter, Amanda

Sally Anne qualified as a teacher in 1974. She worked as a class teacher in a school before starting her private tuition business.

Amanda has a BA in English Language and Linguistics. Plus, an MA in sociology.

How Guinea Pig Education Started...

- In 1990, Sally Anne started a private tuition business teaching children, of all abilities, one to one.

- She felt there was insufficient material on the market and began writing her own schemes of work, to suit the needs of individual children.

- In 2004, these schemes were developed into textbooks and sold to clients of Guinea Pig Education, local parents, retail stores and online.

- Our books have been written with children in mind, trialled by them in our private lessons and have produced rapid results. Sally’s pupils, including her own children, have been taught by Guinea Pig materials and have achieved academic excellence.
