Educational assessments
Families and schools wanting to understand why a child is struggling with learning — and what will help.
Educational assessment focuses on reading, writing, and mathematics skills to determine specific learning difficulties. Grace uses a combination of standardised tests, observations, and interviews to understand the root causes of learning challenges. Based on the results, she recommends the best educational strategies to address these difficulties.
What’s included
- An initial consultation to gather background information.
- An educational assessment using the WIAT-III, CTOPP, YARC, TOWRE, CELF and DASH — a 1½-hour educational test assessing reading, written expression, spelling and mathematics.
- Scoring and analysis of results.
- A brief report (approximately 5–10 pages) detailing the results and providing recommendations and intervention strategies.
- A follow-up consultation immediately after the assessment to discuss results with the client and parents.
- Provision of the report to the parents and the school.
Education support also includes
- Conducting educational assessments involved in the diagnosis of neurodiverse conditions
- Writing an education report highlighting strengths and challenges, with support strategies for teachers and parents or carers

What are educational assessments?
Educational assessments are specialised evaluations used to determine a child’s academic and learning ability. A comprehensive educational assessment consists of both cognitive testing (measuring intellectual abilities) and achievement testing (measuring actual academic skills). Understanding how your child learns, processes information, and performs academically helps identify whether learning difficulties, giftedness, or specific learning disorders are present.
What achievement testing measures
These standardised tests assess your child’s actual academic skills across key domains:
Reading
Decoding, fluency and comprehension.
Written language
Spelling, grammar and written expression.
Mathematics
Calculation, problem-solving and mathematical reasoning.
Oral language
Listening comprehension and expressive vocabulary.
Scope of practice
NeuroSense conducts achievement testing as part of educational assessment. Where a comprehensive assessment also requires cognitive testing (such as the WISC-V), that component is carried out by an educational psychologist.
Dr Kamuyu practises as an educator, NDIS Behaviour Support Practitioner and Neurodiversity and Inclusive Education Consultant. A formal diagnosis of autism or ADHD in Australia is made by a registered psychologist, paediatrician or psychiatrist, and a referral can be suggested where that is the appropriate next step.
