Cognitive & Academic Assessments

WISC-V (Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children – Fifth Edition)

A comprehensive cognitive assessment that helps identify how a child learns, thinks, and processes information. The WISC-V supports early intervention by offering insights into:
–  Working Memory – understanding focus, attention, and short-term memory
– Processing Speed – identifying how quickly and efficiently a child completes tasks
– Problem-Solving & Reasoning – highlighting strengths and areas needing support

This assessment is ideal for families seeking clarity around learning difficulties, developmental concerns, or school performance.

WIAT-III (Wechsler Individual Achievement Test – Third Edition)

A detailed academic assessment that evaluates core skills such as reading, writing, spelling, and numeracy. The WIAT-III helps identify:
– Learning delays
– Specific academic difficulties
– Areas where a child may require additional support
– Opportunities for enrichment and skill-building

It provides clear guidance for targeted intervention and personalised learning plans.
