Psychological assessment

A psychoeducational assessment is conducted using a variety of tools to develop a complete perspective of your child’s academic skills and cognitive abilities. It is important to determine not just how much your child has learned, but how he/she learns and goes about the task of solving problems. Through psychoeducational assessment, we can understand the overall condition of a child and cater their needs better by understanding certain conditions that they might have such as learning difficulties, ADD/ ADHD, ASD, Behavior problem or other related condition. Through the recommendation from the psychoeducational assessment, we can also design educational programs and interventions appropriate to help the children’s development according to their own needs.

A school readiness assessment is conducted to evaluate the readiness of developmental aspects and basic learning skills which will support the child to develop their literacy skills and following the classroom routine in primary school.

From birth, we learn to communicate our basic needs, and over time, more complex thoughts and emotions. When communication issues are present, their effects can be far-reaching through an individual’s life. Speech and language assessments are suitable for individuals who are behind their peers developmentally in terms of speech, language, and communication skills, include individuals who:

• Have delayed or disordered speech sounds

• Have difficulty understanding speech

• Have difficulty following directions

• Have difficulty communicating

• Display poor, delayed or no-existent social skills

• Struggles with classroom demands

Researchers have indicated that social skills deficits in early childhood are related to poor academic performance and may be predictive of social adjustment problems. Hence, identifying our child's needs on developing their social skills is also important to support them perform optimally both inside or outside school. The purpose of the social skills assessment is to get comprehensive data related to how certain individuals functioning in social setting, including the behavioral performance as well as the use of skills in situations of interest and the consequences of those behaviors.
