Assessments
Children with learning difficulties who are identified early can have appropriate interventions that can change their futures. If you are unsure of what type of assessment you need for your child contact us to discuss your child’s problems or give us a call on (01)6856606.
- Standard assessment: This takes approx 1 hr 20 mins and costs from €60. It includes a detailed history and discussion with the parents, a dyslexia screening test and reading test (phonics pre-reading test for younger children)
- Pre school assessments are available where parents are unsure if their child is ready to start school. An extra pre-school year is now not available for children with special needs (as of March 2011). Parents will now need to ensure that they access resource classes for their children in Junior infants. Contact us for more information.
All assessments are carried out on Saturdays and during school holidays as well as during term time. Written reports are available with all assessments. If necessary we can refer children onto other services such as occupational therapists, speech and language therapists, psychologists, and optometrists.
