Both can show up as "my child isn't keeping pace at school." The crucial difference is whether it's a broad developmental profile or a specific cognitive-academic difficulty.
Learning Disabilities: Specific academic skills — reading (dyslexia), math (dyscalculia), or writing (dysgraphia). Cognitive ability is typically in the average or above-average range.
Developmental Delays: Broader domains — motor, social, language, cognitive milestones. Can involve overall slower pace of development.
Learning Disabilities: When specific academic demands start — reading instruction (ages 6-8), math complexity (ages 8-10).
Developmental Delays: Earlier — 1-4 years, when milestones fall behind the typical range.
Learning Disabilities: Psychoeducational Assessment.
Developmental Delays: Developmental screening or psychometric assessment depending on age.
Psychoeducational assessments play a pivotal role in supporting neurodivergent children — those with learning differences such as ADHD, dyslexia, or autism spectrum disorders.
Our psychometric assessments are designed to gently and accurately understand your child's learning style, strengths, and areas where they may need additional support.
Starting school is a big step in a child’s life. Our School Readiness Program helps children develop the skills they need to feel confident and comfortable in a classroom environment.
Sometimes. As a child enters formal schooling, a Psychoeducational Assessment can reveal whether specific learning disabilities are part of the picture — and that changes the support strategy.
