Cognition and Learning Assessment

Cognition and Learning Assessments provide an up to date profile of a pupil’s learning strengths and difficulties, giving information about their underlying ability, cognitive processing and literacy skills.

Cognition and Learning Assessments are carried out by a Specialist Teacher with an additional post graduate qualification in the fields of child development/learning difficulties.

Assessments will include the following:

• 1:1 assessment of the pupil which may include a classroom observation.
• Discussion with SENCo and/or key members of staff.
• Written report with advice and guidance.
• Meeting to feed back to parents and/or staff.
• Discussion with school to review progress towards recommended outcomes.
