Home/ Services /Assessment

Children are assessed on the attainment of skills and behaviours appropriate to their age groups. The assessment is a detailed observation and examination of developmental milestones in the areas of gross motor, fine motor, vision, hearing, communication, social, cognitive, self help and behaviour.

An assessment typically goes on for 2 days. The child is observed for at least 2 hours on each day, making the total duration of observation 4 hours. After collecting complete history and the background, a child is assessed in different areas by a team consisting of an occupational speech & language therapist, a special educator and a counselor.

Once the assessment is over, the parents are briefed about the strengths and weaknesses of the child. After this, an appropriate programme is planned out, keeping in mind, the immediate needs of the child and the culture she belongs to. Parents are kept informed at each stage of assessment and planning.
