Full diagnostic maths assessment including dyscalculia aged 8-21

A maths assessment might be just what you need if:

  • you (if aged 21 or under) or your child finds maths tricky

  • you'd like to know whether you have dyscalculia which relates to very specific challenges or whether you have a 'specific learning difficulty in maths' that is a more common diagnosis than dyscalculia and can be just as impactful on life

  • you'd like a report that addresses a wide range of areas and offers practical strategies

How long does the assessment take and what does it involve?

These assessments take place only in person at my home in Crawley Down near East Grinstead in West Sussex.

Unless a full dyslexia assessment has already taken place, the assessments usually take around 2.5 hours (followed by brief immediate verbal feedback) and involve a wide range of standardised tests including: sequencing, perception estimation, numerical magnitude processing, maths fluency, the language of maths, maths problem solving skills, written maths, verbal working memory, visual working memory and general language skills. You'll receive a report that not only details the different tasks involved but also provides information about strategies being used at the assessment, my observations and practical recommendations.

Before the assessment takes place, I'll ask you to complete a questionnaire. For children, I ask that the school or college also completes a questionnaire and it can often help to see the latest school report

How much is the assessment and when do I pay?

The cost of this assessment is £575 which includes a £75 deposit at the time of booking and the balance payable no later than the assessment date.

There's no additional fee for referral letters (e.g. ADHD, speech and language) or JCQ form 8s when schools and colleges have agreed before the assessment takes place to work with me regarding GCSE and A' level exam access arrangements.

If education providers and employers are paying, an invoice is sent after the assessment and full payment is requested within 30 days. 

Please get in touch about the cost, etc. if you're looking for a combined literacy and maths assessment or if you've already had a literacy/dyslexia assessment with me.
