Assessments and Reports

We have access to a wide range of standardised assessment tests. Only after observations, meetings, and discussions have taken place will we decide on which is most appropriate to the needs of the pupil. All of our assessors hold the Certificate of Competence in Educational Testing (CCET) from the British Psychological Society. This means you can be confident that any assessments carried out by us are administered in a fully standardised manner.

Our assessment package comprises several parts:

• A preliminary meeting with school staff to establish the expectations and aims of the assessment.

• A meeting with parents/carers to gain their views on the needs of their child.

• Meeting with and observation of the student in their school or setting.

• Administration of one or more standardised assessment tests appropriate to the needs of the pupil.

• A comprehensive written report containing the observation notes, carefully scored and analysed assessment results, and suggested interventions/strategies/next steps tailored to the specific individual's assessed needs.

• A follow-up meeting with school staff, parents/carers to discuss the report and next steps if required.

Single Student Assessment Package £300

Because the assessments are standardised, the results can be included in Educational Health Care Needs Assessment (EHCNA) applications and requests for additional funding such as Inclusion Funding. The suggested tailored strategies and interventions contained within the report, combined with the standardised results, can help SENDCOs complete applications and EHCP reviews, saving valuable time.
