Dyspraxia

If the assessor thinks your child has dyspraxia (a common disorder affecting gross and fine motor coordination in children),  she will indicate this to you verbally and recommend onward assessment by a paediatrician or occupational therapist.

If she thinks an adult client has dyspraxia, she may indicate this in a report for Disabled Students Allowance as it may affect your study. She is still obliged to recommend onward referral.

Maths Anxiety

The assessor can administer a mathematical test which is the equivalent of GCSE, or a Mathematical Anxiety test. She cannot administer maths tests which are of ‘A’ Level standard or above, as she has not studied the subject to these levels.
