A research project involving UK nurseries and schools is being carried out to develop assessments of children's thinking, reading, spelling and maths abilities.
We are looking to invite nurseries and schools across the UK to take part in these studies. Your school's involvement would be greatly appreciated. If you are able to take part, you will receive vouchers for your school!
The resulting assessments will enable professionals to use the tests to help diagnose if a child has particular difficulties in these areas.
Your school's participation would involve emailing a link to an online form to parents and/or handing out paper parental consent forms, returning them to our offices in our freepost address envelopes and we will do the rest!
A qualified professional with a DBS check will visit the school at a mutually convenient time and test the selected children on a one-to-one basis.
