Education Assessment Services
Education Needs Assessments for children, young people and adults that identify learning barriers, strengths and practical support, with remote assessments from £210 + VAT and face-to-face from £250 + VAT.
Understand Learning Needs. Unlock Potential.
Our Education Needs Assessments help identify learning barriers, strengths and the support required for children, young people and adults to thrive in education, training and the workplace.
These assessments are ideal for individuals, families, schools, colleges, universities and employers who require a deeper understanding of a learner’s needs without the need for a full diagnostic assessment. The outcome is a clear, practical plan of support that can be implemented immediately to improve engagement, confidence and achievement.
