About the Package
The Educational and Learning Assessment
The 'Educational and Learning Assessment' package is the package to choose when your child is having difficulties including learning difficulties, reaching educational goals, ADHD related concerns, emotional and/or social difficulties. The assessment helps you to understand the reasons for your child's difficulties and other factors that may be impacting your child's learning. In this package, we complete a cognitive assessment that reviews your child's learning styles and identifies their strengths and weaknesses. Academic Achievement testing is conducted as part of this assessment. The package will provide a diagnosis of any Specific Learning Disorders if present in your child's profile such as Dyslexia, Dyscalculia and/or Dysgraphia. At the time of assessment, ADHD and executive functioning difficulties will be reviewed. As part of the package, a comprehensive report and recommendations will be provided. Parent and Teacher questionnaires are included as a part of this package.

How Is The Assessment Scheduled?
We typically schedule the assessment to occur either in a single day or over two separate days. In the single-day format, the parent intake session and child testing are conducted on the same day, with testing divided into a two-hour session in the morning and a three-hour session in the afternoon. If scheduled over two days, the parent intake session and first two hours with the child will be held on one day, followed by the child’s 3 hour testing session on the subsequent day.
