Helping your child, however they learn
We offer assessments for children with Special Educational Needs (SEN), to help provide them with arrangements and support so that they can flourish.
Our SEN assessments cover all of the most common specific learning difficulties. This includes disorders which affect motor skills, such as Dyspraxia, or literacy and numeracy skills, such as Dyslexia, Dyscalculia or Dysgraphia, along with behavioural conditions like Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD) or Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD).

Diagnostic Assessments for Dyslexia for university students
Whatever level of education you or your child has reached, our Dyslexia & Literacy Assessments provide a clear and detailed picture of a student’s strengths and weaknesses and will be able to confirm whether the student has Dyslexia.
At university, new challenges for students can highlight difficulties that previously lay beneath the surface, and our diagnostic assessments can both help you gain more information on what might be behind these difficulties and help us advise you as to your next steps (including recommending extra support or more time in exams, if appropriate).
Understanding each child as an individual and identifying their academic attainment and areas for development is the key to ensuring their educational success. Using assessment to determine the level of a child relative to their age and stage will help parents recognise how their child compares to the standards against which they are being measured, allowing targeted work and faster progression.
The diagnostic assessment will usually take up to three hours to complete and looks at the following areas:
- Underlying Ability (Verbal and Non-Verbal skills)
- Attainment Skills (Reading, Spelling, Writing and Maths, if needed)
- Cognitive Skills (Phonological Awareness, Processing Speed and Memory)
Feedback and Reporting
Our expert SEN assessor - Hema Desai - then analyses the results of these tests to produce an overall profile of your performance and determine a potential diagnosis.
A comprehensive written report is then provided, which clearly outlines all of our insights and recommendations.
