Assessments and diagnostics

An assessment is not a test your child can fail. It is a structured way of understanding how your child thinks, communicates, moves, and learns, so that any support we recommend is aimed at the right thing. We use internationally standardised instruments, administered by clinicians trained and certified in their use.
