Psycho-educational assessments provide information related to overall intellectual ability, and more importantly, about the child’s academic and behavioural strengths and needs, using different relevant sources.  It involves gathering of information about a child’s background, medical history from the parents and teachers. The intellectual ability, among other relevant skills, and academic achievement skills are garnered during the meeting with the student/child. Other relevant information may also be collected related to social, emotional and behavioural functioning.  This information is used to identify and diagnose learning disabilities, ADHD, language delays, processing difficulties, and executive functioning deficiencies.
