Before determining the appropriate training program, an initial pre-standardised assessment is conducted to evaluate your child’s abilities in relation to their peers. These tests have been standardised using a large sample of children with varying abilities to establish average performance levels. By comparing your child’s scores to those of their age group, specific weaknesses in their development can be identified. Based on these findings, a customised series of developmental and cognitive training exercises is designed to specifically target and improve these areas of weakness. 

Singapore Brain Development Centre employs a comprehensive approach to Pre-assessments by utilising various tests and proprietary screening tools. These evaluations provide a detailed understanding of an individual’s skill strengths and weaknesses, particularly in developmental and cognitive areas. 

Some of the testing tools we use include the Woodcock Johnson Tests of Achievement (WJ III-ACH), Test of Auditory Processing Skills (TAPS-4), Test of Visual Perceptual Skills (TVPS-4), Sensory Development Profiling Test, DIR Floortime Test, Renfrew Language Scales, SCAN-3:C Tests for Auditory Processing Disorders, The Heart Drawing.

In addition to screening assessments, Singapore Brain Development Centre offers formal psychoeducational diagnostic services conducted by our Senior Educational Psychologist. A complimentary 30-minute Zoom session can be arranged to identify the individual’s specific needs and determine the appropriate requirements for the assessment. These services include:

  • Evaluation of neuro-developmental, learning, attentional, and social-behavioural difficulties, such as dyslexia, autism spectrum disorders (ASD), attention deficit disorders (ADHD), and intellectual impairments.
  • Screening or assessment for school readiness or school placement, including special schools, international schools, and for students with relocation plans, both overseas and local.
  • Updated psycho-educational assessments and needs evaluations for school and examination access arrangements (AA), as well as intervention plans.
  • Assessment for high ability and giftedness.

Discovering skills is the key

Assessing and addressing underlying developmental and cognitive skills is crucial for improving learning performance. By identifying specific areas of need through individual skills testing, it becomes possible to target and strengthen these skills
