Our portfolio includes the popular WIAT-2 T, a UK standardised assessment which provides a comprehensive and detailed assessment of reading and spelling. This assessment is useful for providing standardised scores when applying for access arrangements for examinations, statementing and establishing general literacy levels.
We also publish the newly updated Raven’s Progressive Matrices and Vocabulary Scales which provides a reliable assessment of verbal and nonverbal general ability for students aged 4 – 18 years. This is an important tool for our ethnically diverse population and can be particularly useful for assessing students for whom English is an additional language. Other popular assessments included in our portfolio are:
• Dyslexia Screening Tests, a range of screeners for all ages which can be used to identify those students at risk of Dyslexia. • Detailed Assessment of Speed of Handwriting (DASH) a quick and easy to administer assessment of handwriting speed. • Automated Working Memory Assessment (AWMA), a PC-based assessment of working memory skills and memory impairments Our website: www.psychcorp.co.uk provides more information |
