Ministry Of Education
Don’t wait for an assesment by the board, your child’s best education is waiting.
Lisa Thompson has announced a number of changes to the province’s education system. Many School Psychologists have been terminated at our surrounding boards. The resources are getting slimmer day by day. Identification of your child as an “Exceptional Learner” within the school board guarantees change moving forward.
As the education system changes, SBSLG will continue to be committed to assist families in learning how their child learns and retains information. Psycho-educational assessment is a process of testing that uses a variety of techniques and tools to form a hypothesis of learning, behavior and capabilities. A psycho-educational assessment identifies areas of strength and weakness in a student’s learning profile and provides a deeper understanding of their educational abilities. It can identify Learning Disabilities, Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), Intellectual Disabilities, and reading (dyslexia), writing (Dysgraphia) and math (Dyscalculia) challenges that can interfere with learning and success.
Assessment often leads to identification and the development of an Individual Education Plan (IEP) within the education system. The IEP creates an opportunity for teachers, parents, school administrators, related services personnel, and students (when appropriate) to work together to improve educational results for children. The IEP is thought to be the cornerstone of quality education for each child with a learning difference.
