An assessment uses observation, standardised tests, and analysis of data to identify a child’s skills, strengths, and possible challenges. This is used to determine which strategies will be most effective in helping them reach their full potential

Assessments typically include:

• liaison with parent(s) and school

• review of background information

• administering of assessment

• verbal feedback to parent/guardian(s) directly following assessment.

• provision of written report, including individualised recommendations

• online follow-up meeting, if necessary

This depends on a number of factors, including a child’s age and any referral concerns. During consultation we can advise on appropriate assessments and the approaches considered likely to be most effective.

Following booking, background forms are sent to parents. These must be completed and returned before the assessment, along with recent school reports and other information relevant to your child’s situation..

Assessments are conducted within a calm and focused practicing environment, with space for movement breaks and a comfortable reception area.

Our practice is conveniently situated in Central London.

Care is taken to ensure that each child is at ease throughout the session, with movement and snack breaks provided.
