A motor skills assessment should help to identify the cause of any motor difficulties and lead to recommendations for support. The benefits which come from this include:
Increased understanding following a motor skills assessment will allow strategies to be put in place to help children and young people to be happy, safe and ready for life’s challenges.
A motor skills assessment can be carried out following an initial discussion, please see our process below.
At HSR Psychology we ensure that we meet the needs of children and young people. To achieve this we ensure that any specific assessments, intervention, or direct work, is only carried out following an initial discussion.
An initial discussion allows us to understand the background and your expectations of our involvement. Having an initial discussion ensures any services we provide appropriately identify or address needs.
Our process for any specific assessments, intervention, or direct work is as follows:
A motor skills assessment varies depending on the age of the child or young person and will be age appropriate. Motor skills assessments involve a mixture of physical activities, questions, drawing and writing.
The specific assessments used will be chosen based on the individual. The main motor skills assessments we use are:
There may be times when the motor skills assessment would be best carried out by one of our in house occupational therapists (OTs), if this is the case then we would inform you during the initial discussion.
After a motor skills assessment recommendations can be made due to an increased understanding of a child or young person’s motor needs. These recommendations may include strategies or activities to complete at home or school, or an intervention.
Reports are available outlining the results of the motor assessment and any recommendations. We provide a range of reports to best suit individual needs. Read more about the reports we offer.
A motor skills assessment identifies a child or young person’s motor needs, which leads to recommendations.
Arrange an initial discussion to find out how we can benefit your education setting. The initial discussion lasts 2 hours and is a starting point to identify needs. The cost is £300.
