Yes. We’re delighted to support schools and local authorities with a wide range of additional SEN services including staff training, individual or group SEN support, pupil and parent clinics and more. As with all our services, this can be on an ad hoc or long-term basis. If you would benefit from additional specialist SEN support, please don’t hesitate to give us a call.
Our network contains high calibre, qualified EPs in the full range of specialisms. Our EPs can carry out all types of assessments, including assisting with statutory assessments for an EHCP and also assessments for learning difficulties such as ADHD, Autism and Asperger’s, plus provision for cognitive, behavioural and emotional issues. Assessments will incorporate a range of tools including observations, interviews, psychometric and verbal tests.
We provide EPs to Independent and Maintained schools, as well as Special schools, Colleges, Multi-academy Trusts and to Local Authorities. We can provide ongoing EP provision or simply as a top up in times of high volumes of assessments or to enable EHCP deadlines to be met.

We vett all of our psychologists prior to registration and only accept applications from psychologists who are registered with the Health & Care Professions Council and/or the British Psychological Society. We also ask that they provide an anonymous copy of a previous report for us to check, before we give them their first instruction. In addition to this all reports are quality checked by our Client Management team prior to being released to you.
Finally, we constantly monitor the performance of our psychologists in terms of their ability to adhere to agreed fees & deadlines as we appreciate that these are also very important.
Our register of Psychologists contains professionals in a wide variety of specialist areas. Contact us for help with finding Expert Witnesses in Family Law, Criminal Law, PI/Civil Law, Immigration Law, Prison Law and Employment Law.
