| Description | Psycho-Educational Assessments evaluate specific factors that contribute to a child's learning problems. Recommendations will be provided to address these problems. The Assessment is completed by a Psychometrist and it includes clinical interviews and formalized testing using standardized assessment tools, a written report with findings, written and oral communication of results, and recommendations for intervention or placement, if appropriate. Before the final report is released to the parent, the testing and consultation results are reviewed, approved, and signed by our consulting psychiatrist who is registered with the College of Psychologists of Ontario. The service is available to children in grades 1 through 12.
