Please follow the steps below to refer your child for an assessment. If you have any questions about the assessment process, take a look at the Assessment FAQ  page.

1. Download Forms

This is the quickest way to make a referral.

Click the button to download a Referral Form and Parent/Carer Information Form. They are Word documents, so you need to save them to your computer to complete them. These forms help me to plan what tests to use.

The fees are listed on the Referral Form.

There is also a School/Nursery Information Form to be completed by your child’s educational setting. I do not carry out assessments without School/Nursery involvement. If you have any concerns with regards to this, please telephone to discuss further. This form is not required for children who are home educated.

There is also the option to make a referral for an assessment for exam access arrangements, typically used for 11+ exams and GCSEs. You do not need to fill in this form if you are requesting a full assessment, as recommendations for exam access arrangements are included.

Please read the second set of instructions below BEFORE submitting the referral forms. Thank you.

2. Complete and Email Forms

Please read carefully to avoid delaying your child’s assessment.

What should be emailed?

If you would like to proceed with a full assessment:

• Click the ‘download forms’ button on this page.
• Click the Educational Psychology Assessment folder.
• Save the word documents to your computer.
• Complete and return the forms. There are 2 forms for parents/carers and 1 for school/nursery. Please check to ensure you answer all questions on the forms and sign/date at the bottom (both parents if you are a two-parent household).
• If your child has recently started a new school, or your child has recently started home education, please ask their previous setting to also complete the school/nursery form, and let me know if there are any problems arranging this.
• You do not need to send the exam access arrangements form.
• Children who have been home educated for more than 3 months do not need a school/nursery form completed.
• Email any other professional reports and your child’s EHCP (if they have one). It is particularly important that I see reports with test scores and/or diagnoses, even if they are from when your child was much younger.

Exam access arrangements:

If you require an assessment only for exam access arrangements, eg for 11+ exams or GCSEs:

• Click the ‘download forms’ button on this page.
• Click the Exam Access Arrangements folder.
• Save the word document to your computer.
• Complete and email the referral form. Please note that I will need to contact your chid’s school as part of this assessment, so please ensure their contact details are clearly written.

Where will the assessment take place?

Most assessments take place at my home (J22 of the M25), but some children require their assessments to take place at their home or school. I will confirm the location after reading the referral forms.

Is a school observation required?

If there are concerns regarding social skills or aggressive/unusual behaviours, then an observation at school is advised, otherwise this is optional. It may not be possible for me to observe your child if their school location is further than I travel for work. I will advise further once I have read the referral forms.

Assessment dates will only be offered after all the documents listed above have been received, with all sections completed and forms signed.

Referral forms were updated on 29th September 2024. Please ensure you have downloaded the latest versions. Email the completed forms directly to hannahmorris@edpsych4kids.com
