When You’re Not Sure: A Parent’s Guide to Neurodevelopmental Assessment

Has your child’s school suggested an assessment, but you’re unsure whether it’s needed?
Perhaps you’re wondering what a neurodevelopmental assessment actually involves, who carries it out, whether your child is too young, or how to know if now is the right time.

Join our experienced clinicians for a practical, parent-friendly webinar designed to answer the questions we hear every day from families considering assessment for Autism, ADHD and other neurodevelopmental differences (Dyslexia, Dyscalculia, Dyspraxia).

During this webinar, we’ll explore:
• What a neurodevelopmental assessment is – and what it isn’t
• Why schools sometimes recommend assessment
• What the assessment process looks like from start to finish
• Who is involved and why a multidisciplinary approach matters
• The evidence and research behind assessment practices
• The role of parents and schools in the process
• Whether an assessment can be completed without school involvement
• The potential benefits, limitations and outcomes of assessment
• How to prepare your child and family for the process
• Whether your child is too young (or too old) to benefit
• The best timing during the school year to begin an assessment
• How to decide on the most appropriate pathway for your child
There will also be an opportunity to ask questions and gain practical guidance to help you make an informed decision about your child’s next steps.
