What is an Advanced Dyscalculia Screening?

An Advanced Dyscalculia Screening Test is an assessment designed to identify the probability of Dyscalculia within an individual. Dyscalculia is a specific learning difficulty that affects the understanding of numbers, mathematical concepts and the ability to perform everyday day calculations.

It is the first stage of testing that you would do if you have any concerns about Dyscalculia affecting you or your child. This type of screening evidences any learning difficulties, identifies strengths and weaknesses and helps with developing appropriate support at home or at school.

How it Works

The Appointment

You will meet with a specialist assessor with qualifications in testing. They will answer any questions you may have about neurodiversity, guide you through the testing process, and then explain the results and discuss further actions.

The Location

All of our assessments are conducted face-to-face. This can be either at our centre in central Norwich or online through secure conferencing software. You will work in a private room with the assessor, and supporters are also welcome to attend.

The Process

Each appointment can last up to two hours. It consists of an initial chat to establish your situation, followed by the screening, and then the explanation of results. You will have plenty of time with your assessor to discuss your concerns and talk through possible support options.

The Result

We'll provide you with the results on the day. The assessor will talk through these results with you to ensure you fully understand them. We will also send you an electronic copy by the end of the day.

Who It Helps

Anyone aged 7 and above who is struggling with numeracy. The screening test results will provide a profile of attainment and allow the assessor to identify where your numeracy skills lie and areas that may need additional work. 
 
This information is really useful for educators, parents and carers as it can inform their teaching practice, including approaches used in dyslexia-friendly classrooms. Additionally, your assessor is experienced in other learning difficulties such as ASD and ADHD and if any tendencies of these are present, they will happily discuss this with you. Even if no learning difficulty or neurodiversity is identified the process can be very enlightening and cathartic.
