Psychometric assessments for children aim to evaluate their cognitive abilities, intellectual and adaptive functioning, and developmental milestones (using assessments such as the WISC-V, WIAT-III, BRIEF-2, CAS, Conners, ABAS etc).

These assessments assess various domains, including verbal and non-verbal reasoning, memory, attention, problem-solving, perceptual skills, and processing speed. They help identify intellectual disabilities, giftedness, learning disabilities, or developmental delays.

Additionally, Psychometric assessments for children can inform educational planning, interventions, and support services.

We carry out assessments for:

• Intelligence Testing

• Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (problems with attention and concentration)

• Specific learning difficulties

• Learning disorders

• Gifted and Talented
