About Psycho-ed
Assessments for Children
Ages 6-17
A psychoeducational assessment is a comprehensive evaluation often used to assess students and make recommendations to address academic or learning difficulties. Psychoeducational assessments aim to understand an individual's cognitive abilities, learning style, and academic strengths and weaknesses.
Often psychological or behavioural challenges are also evaluated, as they may impact learning as well. It typically involves a combination of standardized tests, interviews, observations, and a review of relevant records. The assessment evaluates various areas, such as intelligence, learning potential, academic skills, memory, attention, socio-emotional functioning and behaviour.
The results of a psychoeducational assessment can provide valuable insights into a person's learning profile, identify specific learning disabilities or challenges, including ADHD or other disorders that impact learning and behaviour, and inform the development of appropriate educational interventions and accommodations. It can be particularly helpful for children, adolescents, or adults experiencing academic difficulties, struggling with learning or seeking support for educational planning and decision-making.
We utilize the latest assessment measures available, and our testing protocols and reports meet all current professional standards and are accepted by all local school boards and academic institutions.
