Scholastic Assessments
A full scholastic assessment consists of a variety of assessments that can determine the cause of a child or adolescent's underperformance at school or difficulty in certain academic areas. This pinpoints the specific areas that are acting as barriers to learning and allows for proper interventions or strategies that can best assist your child and allow them to perform to the best of their ability. Assesses areas such as cognitive ability (IQ), visual-motor integration, auditory and visual memory, reading speed, phonological processing, reading, spelling and mathematical ability, reading comprehension, writing speed and processing speed.
Special-School-Placement Assessment
Determines if your child will benefit from learning in a modified environment that will be conducive for their growth, and where their unique learning needs will be properly catered to. Includes a full IQ assessment along with numerous other tests. These can further determine if a specific learning disability may be present.
School Readiness Assessment
An assessment administered to Grade R learners to determine their developmental readiness for formal schooling (progression to Grade 1). It examines whether your child’s development is progressing at the rate expected for their age, if they require monitoring in their learning, supportive intervention or, if they may benefit from delaying commencement into Grade 1.
