Psychological Assessments and Evaluations

IQ Assessment

Specific Learning Disability Assessment

Specific Learning Disability Assessment is done to understand and diagnose learning difficulties or disabilities in children. A cognitive assessment in conjunction with an educational assessment can assist in identifying the presence of a learning difficulty or disorder in children and to help teachers
make appropriate accommodations for students in the classroom. This information can be used to manage and minimise negative experiences at school such as poor academic results, school avoidance and low self-esteem.

Autism Spectrum Disorder Assessment

Comprehensive assessment for Autism Spectrum Disorder is also provided to identify and diagnose autistic features and its severity on the spectrum.

Assessment for Emotional and Behavioural Problems

Early identification is crucial in order to get students with emotional and behavioural problems the resources and supports that they need to succeed in school. Previous research shows that early identification and early provision of services leads to better outcomes. That is why it is important to
go for proper and timely assessments of students with Emotional and Behavioural Disorders (EBD) Common behaviours shown by EBD students can include getting out of their seats, yelling, abusive language or cursing, disturbing peers, hitting or fighting, ignoring the teacher, complaining, arguing,
excessively, stealing, not being truthful, destroying property, not complying with directions, temper tantrums, do not complete assignments, etc. All EBD students have and display different characteristics and behaviours. This is one reason the assessment process is a vital part of each
student’s academic success. Each student may need a wide range of supports and or resources to help them with their behaviour and academic success.
