How does it work?
1. Liaison
Following a conversation with you, we tailor and design a series of learning modules to suit your specific school needs and one of our locally based practitioners will come to your school and deliver them.
2. Assessment
One of the most important aspects of collaborating with an applied scientist or a technologist is to diagnose the area that is impacting the development and progress of a pupil’s acceleration within key STEM areas.
Our facilitator begins by meeting the child and having a conversation, to establish rapport. The most important role of our tutor is to meet the child at his / her level. This may involve role playing, drawing pictures, or the use of toys and props. Relating to the child through the use of play is an effective way to build trust and help the child feel comfortable. Additional standardized tests may be used to ascertain conditions like learning disorders, social interaction weaknesses, or emotional issues.
The sessions could comprise a one hour session each week for a term or half term to your pupils/students or maybe it could be a full training day(s) for teachers. A typical psychological assessment may take four to seven hours to complete. It may be conducted in several sessions, depending upon the needs and age of the child or student.
3. Treatment plan
Rooted in evidence based theory, provided by psychology and neuroscience experts, our resource content is designed to help young people understand and manage a range of thorough and engaging psychometric tests.
