Dyslexia Assessments

Clear, caring assessment support to help you understand your child’s learning profile and plan the next steps with confidence.

Understanding

What is a dyslexia assessment?

A dyslexia assessment provides a detailed picture of your child’s learning profile, including their strengths and areas of difficulty. It combines background information from parents/carers and school with a range of standardised assessments exploring literacy and skills associated with dyslexia.


The findings are carefully considered to determine whether the evidence meets the criteria for a dyslexia diagnosis. Whatever the outcome, you will receive a personalised report explaining the findings and providing practical recommendations.
