Educational Assessments
An educational assessment consists of a combination of measures that assess a child’s intellectual functioning (see above) and academic performance.
We can measure a child’s academic performance across a wide range of areas (Reading, Math, Writing and Oral Language) in comparison to same age and/or grade peers.
​
This results in a strength and weakness profile of a child, which can identify the presence of any Specific Learning Disability (SLD) such as Dyslexia, and inform future interventions and remdiation.
An educational assessment can assist in the overall understanding of a range if issues including
(but not limited to):
-
poor academic performance within certain areas at school
-
behavioural difficulties in the classroom (e.g., aggressive behaviours, acting the “clown”)
-
attention and concentration difficulties in the classroom
-
appearing “bored” or disengaged in the classroom
