Neuro-diverse conditions
Following a referral citing exam failure, you may be offered the opportunity to undertake screening for neurodiverse conditions which may include;
- Dyspraxia
- Dyslexia
- Dyscalculia
Following completion of the screening, you will receive a telephone call from an Occupational Psychologist to discuss the results.
The Occupational Psychologist will ask you a number of questions regarding your childhood education, meeting milestones and the difficulties you believe you have.
At this stage you may be considered for further support such as a full cognitive assessment or 1:1 Strategy Coaching.
Please note: should these recommendations be made, funding approval must be given by the PSW.
For GP's only: all neurodiverse screening is being managed by the Primary Care School. Please contact england.primarycare.eoe@nhs.net for further enquires.
To be considered for screening, the PSW will require a completed PSW self-referral (this link takes you to the page 'how to refer' - select self-referral and be sure to tick the main reason for the referral as exam support)
