A battery of short, diagnostic tests that help identify areas of difficulty in literacy learning.
The Dyslexia Portfolio is an ideal follow-up assessment for those pupils whose performance in literacy is causing concern.
The individual diagnostic assessment provides a profile of strengths and weaknesses that can be translated directly into an individual teaching plan, enabling specialist teachers to devise and implement a relevant and sensitive, multi-sensory intervention programme.
Comprising nine sub-tests, the Dyslexia Portfolio takes just 40 minutes to administer and the one-to one test format allows observation of each pupil during the test session. The mix of tasks in these tests will help identify areas of difficulty in word level literacy, phonics and processing.
The nine sub-tests are as follows (some of which can be used for Access Arrangements):
- Single Word Reading
- Single Word Spelling
- Reading Speed
- Phoneme Deletion
- Non-Word Reading
- Naming Speed
- Writing
- Recall of Digits Forward
- Recall of Digits Backwards.
The Portfolio comes with an online Report Generation Tool. Specialist teachers can input raw scores and a graphical and narrative report is produced instantly, complete with Standard Age Scores and recommendations for appropriate support and intervention. A parent report is also available.
The Dyslexia Portfolio Complete Set contains the Manual, all stimulus material, Pupil Booklets and Record Forms (5 of each).
