Services
Access Assessments
Standard Access Arrangements - 3 tests - typically TOWRE, TOMAL and CTOPP2 and completion of part 2 of the Form 8 for £50 per student. I provide tests and resources needed to complete tests. This could be completed remotely or face to face - whichever works best for you.
Enhanced Access Arrangements - 5 tests - SpARCS(reading comp speed and Visual/motor processing speed), TOMAL, TOWRE and CTOPP2. I complete part 2 of the Form 8 for £75 per student. Again I provide resources to complete tests. This one needs to be face to face due to administrative requirements of the SpARCS.*
