Assessments are carried out either at the school or our offices. Initially, time is spent gathering information including background details, the nature of the concerns, developmental history and school/learning progress.

 

This is followed by a structured interview with the student which can include exploration on any or all of the following:

• Cognitive Functions

• Literacy & Maths Skills

• Behavioural & Emotional Functions

• Personality Profiles

• Learning Styles

 

Feedback is given to the student throughout and to parents/school staff immediately following the assessment. It often comprises a summary of the findings and the general conclusions of the assessment. Recommendations and suggestions will be made on how best to proceed given the student’s school and home circumstances.

 

A written report on the assessment will be provided. This will give details on all the factors that emerged at assessment, summarise findings and make recommendations.
