REMOTE ONLINE DYSLEXIA ASSESSMENTS IN THE UK ARE NOW AVAILABLE
I provide comprehensive online dyslexia assessments for children across the UK, offering the same high-quality, evidence-based evaluation as traditional face-to-face assessments, all from the comfort of your home. My dyslexia evaluation services include flexible assessment options to meet your needs.
What is a remote assessment? A remote assessment, particularly beneficial for those seeking dyslexia evaluation services, is conducted via secure video call and utilizes a combination of: Standardised assessment tools (where appropriate for remote delivery), structured literacy tasks, observation and discussion, and parent and teacher questionnaires. These flexible assessment options ensure that all assessments are carried out in accordance with current professional guidance, maintaining their validity, reliability, and clinical robustness, making online dyslexia assessments a viable choice.
Who are remote assessments suitable for?
Remote assessments are suitable for:
- Children aged 10 years and above who can use a laptop efficiently
- Children who can engage with a screen for sustained periods
- Families who are unable to attend in person
- Those seeking flexible assessment options for convenience
If you are unsure whether an online dyslexia assessment is appropriate for your child, I am always happy to advise.
What does the assessment involve?
- A structured assessment session (approximately 3 hours, with breaks)
- A calm, supportive approach to help your child feel at ease
- Clear explanation of tasks throughout
Following the assessment, you will receive a detailed written report within approximately two weeks, outlining:
- Your child’s strengths and areas of difficulty
- Whether findings are consistent with dyslexia (diagnosis)
- Clear, practical recommendations for home and school
Will the report be recognised?
Yes. Reports are completed by a Level 7 Specialist Teacher holding an Assessment Practising Certificate (APC) and are written in line with current guidance.
This means:
- The assessment provides a clear and robust understanding of your child’s learning profile
- It can support schools in planning appropriate provision
- It may contribute to evidence for exam access arrangements (in line with school processes and normal way of working)
🏡 Preparing for a remote assessment
To ensure the assessment runs smoothly, you will need:
- A laptop or desktop computer
- A stable internet connection
- A quiet, distraction-free space
- Basic materials (paper, pencil)
Full guidance will be provided in advance.
💬 A flexible, supportive approach
I understand that every child is different. Remote assessments are delivered in a supportive, child-friendly manner, with regular breaks and flexibility built into the session to ensure your child feels comfortable and able to do their best.
