The Full Diagnostic Assessment process

Once we have agreed on a date and time, a background questionnaire will be sent out to you that you will need to bring with you (or email) on the day of assessment. The assessment takes between 2 and 4 hours to complete.

During this time, we look at the key areas of difficulty that are impacted by dyslexia and examine strengths and difficulties in these areas (general ability, short-term memory, visual memory, working memory, rapid retrieval form the long-term memory, phonological awareness, phonological memory, processing speed, single word reading, comprehension, oral reading speed, fluency and accuracy and writing speed).

Once the assessment is over, the results will be calculated and a report will be formed. This usually takes up to 15 working days.

You will be emailed when the report is sent and we can book a feedback session to discuss the results.

Following this, we are on hand to answer any follow up questions or help with recommendations and putting them into place.

We don’t disappear because we understand that the journey is ongoing and we want to be there with you if you need us.

Highly recommend Future Foundations for Dyslexia

Gemma was very helpful when I first made contact and provided clear advice. She was excellent at putting my child at ease during the assessment and explaining the process and approach. Following the assessment, she wrote a comprehensive report with many useful references and resources that will be helpful in the future. The service provided represented excellent value.

Brilliant!

Gemma has been absolutely fantastic with my 10 year old son who was really struggling at school. She reassessed his Dyslexia and also assessed him for Dyscalculia. He really does struggle with his confidence but Gemma supports him at his level and is also really interested and knowledgeable regarding all his quirky interests which really helps! She is also available for me if I need any advice and has provided much comfort within all aspects of the neuro diverse rollercoaster. Thanks so much Gemma xx

If carsberg did special educational teachers...

I have used Gemma for over 2 years now to help my son who has difficulties. Not only has she improved our son, she has helped us navigate the special educational system, gave ours sons school help, and helped us with his EHCP and appeals when the school have said one thing and done another. Gemma has saved us thousands in doing assessments for us and guidance. She has attended official council meetings and gave a more professional take than the school could evidence. Best thing we did for our son.

Excellent support

Gemma has supported our grandson over the last two years with both his maths and reading and writing skills. She is always thorough with her preparation and has an in depth knowledge of providing additional support. He always enjoys working with her and she knows exactly how to pitch the work to keep him interested. As a result he has made excellent progress and we hope she will continue to support him as he goes through school.
