The benefits of a phonological assessment come from the following:
A phonological assessment by a clinical or educational psychologist provides additional information which a speech and language therapist would not provide. This information is used to increase understanding of needs and guide any recommendations.
A phonological 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:
During a phonological assessment we will ask the child or young person to complete various speaking, listening and reading activities. These will allow us to identify areas of strength and difficulty.
The assessments used will be chosen based on the individual. The main phonological assessments we use are:
If we believe that a phonological assessment would be best carried out by our in house speech and language therapists then we would let you know during the initial discussion. The reasons for this may vary but it would usually be when the needs are complex.
After a phonological assessment we will have a clear understanding of an individual’s phonological profile, which can direct future input. Future input may involve a referral to our in house speech and language therapists for further assessment or intervention.
Reports are available upon request depending on your requirements. We provide a variety of report styles, from a summary report to a comprehensive report. Reports are a useful way to share findings or recommendations with other adults or professionals working with the child or young person. Learn more about the reports we offer.
A phonological assessment helps to identify any strengths or difficulties within the building blocks of speech. Understanding phonological needs can guide future input.
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 £260.
