These typefaces are now used worldwide for both the teaching and reading of handwriting. Since 1987 Sassoon has, in partnership with Adrian Williams, developed a range of font products for reading and handwriting education in schools. The subsequent design is the Sassoon Primary typeface. She spent two years researching and designing a typeface that used letterforms which children found easy to read. In 1988 she completed a PhD from the Department of Typography and Graphic Communication at the University of Reading on 'Joins in Children's Handwriting, and the Effects of Different Models and Teaching Methods'. Rosemary Sassoon (b.1931) specialises in the educational and medical aspects of handwriting.
