Strategic Academic Assessment & Consultation
Unlock a deeper understanding of your child’s learning trajectory with an exclusive diagnostic assessment. Designed in a style similar to the CAT4, this test provides objective data and valuable insights into your child’s true academic potential.
By identifying both core strengths and specific areas for development, this assessment forms the essential foundation for a highly targeted support plan, tailored specifically to your child's unique learning profile.
What is Included?
Diagnostic assessment of your child’s strengths and areas for improvement.
A personalised feedback report which breaks each of the four key 11+ areas down into sub-skills to provide a insight into academic potential.
One-to-one consultation on a break down of the score.
Advanced Cognitive Ability Assessment
I offer an advanced cognitive ability assessment, a robust, data-driven tool designed to provide a clear and detailed understanding of your child’s cognitive strengths and areas for development.
How This Assessment Supports 11+ Preparation
For families preparing for the 11+, this assessment shows how your child compares to their peers and whether they are currently working at the level required for selective schools. This allows you to make informed decisions when shortlisting schools that are both ambitious and realistic.
The assessment is adaptive and age-weighted, ensuring an appropriate level of challenge for children aged 7–16.
Identifying Learning Needs Clearly
You will receive in-depth feedback highlighting the areas where your child can make the greatest impact with targeted support. This enables tutoring or home learning to be focused and effective rather than general or unfocused.
By using objective, statistically robust data alongside a detailed skill breakdown, this assessment cuts through vague school reports and provides clear, actionable insight into any learning gaps.
