Educational Assessment
A child presenting academic, behavioural or emotional difficulties at school may benefit from a Psychological-Educational assessment, as it provides a holistic picture of your child’s functioning. Behavioural or emotional issues usually have an impact on the learning environment and this assessment determines learning ability and potential by measuring current intellectual, emotional and behavioural functioning. The earlier difficulties are identified, the sooner remedial action can be taken. This assessment is conducted by myself and Dr Adele Romanis (Clinical Psychologist).
