Continuing your child’s assessment journey can still feel uncertain, especially as you move closer to the actual assessment day.

- What will happen during the session?
- How should you prepare?
- What comes after the assessment?

This week, we are walking this journey with you step by step, so you feel informed, prepared and supported every step of the way.

Let’s continue.

Step 4: Assessment Session
This is where your child takes part in a range of tasks designed to assess areas such as attention, problem solving, reading, writing and memory. These activities help us better understand your child’s learning and development.

Step 4: What to Bring
Preparation is important for a smooth assessment day. Please bring your referral letter, medical aid details, snacks and lunch, as well as any glasses, hearing aids or medication your child may need. Assessments can take several hours and in some cases, the full day.

Step 5: Parent Interview
Your input as a parent is essential. During this session, we gather information about your child’s developmental, medical and academic history, as well as your observations, to build a complete picture.

Step 6: Written Report
Following the assessment, a detailed report is compiled. This includes findings, a possible diagnosis, and recommendations for both school and home, as well as any necessary referrals.

Each of these steps helps us develop a clear and meaningful understanding of your child, so that the support provided is appropriate and effective.

Sometimes the hardest part of the journey is not the assessment, it’s deciding whether to take the first step.

Many parents notice small changes over time. Difficulty concentrating, struggles at school or changes in behaviour. It can be hard to tell whether this is something your child will outgrow or something that needs support. If you find yourself questioning or wondering, that is often a sign to start asking questions. You do not need to have everything figured out.

Starting the conversation and seeking guidance is the first step toward understanding your child’s needs.

Once your booking is confirmed, the next step in the journey is preparation.

- You will receive confirmation of your child’s assessment date, along with forms that need to be completed before the session.

- Parent forms will be sent to you via email and teacher rating scales will also be shared for completion by your child’s teacher. It is important that the teacher completing the form has known your child for at least 6 months, as this helps provide a more accurate picture.

- Please ensure that all forms are completed and returned before the assessment day. This allows us enough time to review the information and prepare for your child’s session.

- We also ask that you arrive at least 10 minutes early on the day of the assessment.

These steps help us understand your child before the assessment begins and ensure the process runs smoothly.

The Referral Letter

At this stage of the journey, the referral becomes important. Many parents are able to get a referral, but not all referrals include the information needed to move forward smoothly.

A complete referral helps us understand your child’s needs before the assessment even begins and ensures that there are no delays, especially when medical aid is involved.

Here is what your referral should include:

- Your child’s full name, age and gender
- The reason for referral
- Concerns that have been observed
- Medical background, including an ICD-10 code
- The referring doctor’s name and practice number
- The doctor’s signature and official stamp

Each of these details plays a role in making sure your child’s assessment is accurate, properly supported and can proceed without unnecessary back and forth. If any of this information is missing, it may delay the process.

If you are unsure whether your referral is complete, you can always reach out to our team for guidance before your appointment. Please don't hesitate to contact us today on: 3117575/ 73345201

In the next step, we will walk you through what happens after booking and how to prepare before assessment day.

Now that you’ve taken the first step, let’s talk about something that often causes confusion for many parents.

The referral.

If you are using medical aid, a referral from a General Practitioner or Medical Doctor is required before your child can proceed with an assessment. The referral is more than just a requirement.

A referral helps ensure that:

Your child is being assessed for the right concerns
The process is medically supported
There are no delays when it comes to approvals

It also gives the psychologist important background information before the assessment even begins. Many delays in the process happen because referral letters are incomplete or missing key details.

In our next post, we will show you exactly what a complete referral should include so you can avoid unnecessary back and forth.

We’re still at the beginning of the journey and every step matters.

Starting your child’s assessment journey can feel confusing, overwhelming and sometimes even a little intimidating.

Where do you begin?
Who do you speak to?
What is actually required?

This month, we are walking this journey with you step by step, so you feel informed, prepared and supported every step of the way.

Let’s start at the beginning.

Step 1: Initial Inquiry
This is where you reach out to us. Whether by phone or email, this is your first step toward understanding your child’s needs. Our team will guide you through what to expect and what is required.

Step 2: Referral Letter
If you are using medical aid, a referral from a GP or medical doctor is required. This is an important step that helps ensure your child is assessed for the right concerns from the start.

Step 3: Booking and Intake Forms
Once your booking is confirmed, forms will be shared with you. Some of these will need to be completed by your child’s teacher, helping us build a full picture before the assessment day.

Each of these steps may seem small, but together they lay the foundation for a meaningful and accurate assessment. In the coming days, we will break down each step so you know exactly what to do, what to expect and how to prepare.

If you’ve ever wondered how assessments work, this series is for you.
