Identification and Assessment of Learning Difficulties

 

psychological assessment and academic evaluation is carried out by a competent qualified professional who uses a range of ability and attainment tests to investigate areas including verbal reasoning, processing speed, working memory, reading, spelling, comprehension, creative writing and numeracy.

The resultant report provides details on the nature and severity of any difficulties identified as well as makes recommendations as to how to best support the individual moving forward. These reports also provide recommendations for O’ and A ‘Level Examinations.
