Assessment for your child
Young Advantage provides comprehensive assessment and tailored learning programs for children of all ages presenting with developmental delays and difficulties.
Every child presents with their own unique set of challenges and needs. As a parent or educator, it is important to recognise when the need for assessment is presented in a child or student. Testing is most effective when given early in the child’s formative years to assist the development of a tailored plan helping the child to reach their maximum potential.
Knowing a child’s needs, abilities and aptitudes will help educators and parents to get into the student’s learning zone…knowledge from assessment will mean that the student can be met at their point of learning…where they need to learn! It is not just about where they are, but where they could go, that is important.

Achievement at school is vital, so that your child has choices in today’s world!
Being able to achieve at or above potential is not only critical to the opening of doors in life but it also impacts on self-esteem, social development and confidence. A child with learning or language difficulties, may not experience success or thrive academically. Learning is “at risk” now and in the future if the risk is not identified and dealt with. Early identification and comprehensive assessment gives a better chance for success, with all the social and emotional benefits that this can bring.
