Educational assessments measure an individual’s academic abilities in a range of areas including:

oral language
basic reading
reading comprehension and fluency
written expression
mathematics and maths fluency.

These assessments help identify areas of academic strength and weakness compared to age matched peers and can diagnose specific learning disorders, such as reading or writing disabilities, as well as giftedness in children. Assessment can assist parents, teachers, and children to better understand how their academic performance in the classroom impacts upon their learning.

The results and recommendations can also help guide teachers in providing extra resources to aid in the learning needs of the child in particular subjects and creating individualised education plans. Educational assessments can be administered to individuals aged 4 to 50 years old.

All testing sessions will involve an initial interview to gain background information, testing sessions to administer the assessments and any relevant questionnaires, and a final feedback session following the completion of report writing to help you understand the final results and recommendations provided.

It should be noted that for all of these assessments, there is no guarantee of a diagnosis. All diagnoses are dependent on observations and results of assessments and questionnaires. In some situations, a recommendation may be given for further testing. However, all tests will include recommendations for the client and a focus on the strengths and weaknesses identified in the individual regardless of whether a diagnosis is given or not.

In some situations we may need to do a combination of assessments, in this case please speak to our team to discuss plans.
