About this Support Category
Private assessment services may be considered when a child, young person or adult needs a clearer understanding of learning, development, communication, emotional wellbeing, mental health, speech and language, sensory needs, or neurodevelopmental differences.
This category brings together private providers who may offer assessment-related services across areas such as ADHD, autism, dyslexia, educational psychology, speech and language, occupational therapy, mental health, SEND support, and related needs.
Assessment services may include:
- Private ADHD assessments
- Private autism assessments
- Combined ADHD and autism assessments
- Dyslexia and specific learning difficulty assessments
- Educational psychology assessments
- Speech, language and communication assessments
- Occupational therapy or sensory assessments
- Reports that may support school, work, family, EHCP or personal understanding
Not every provider listed in this section offers diagnosis or formal reports. When choosing a private assessment provider, check what type of assessment is offered, who completes the assessment, what the report includes, whether follow-up support is available, and whether the service is suitable for children, adults, or both.

Types of Private Assessment Support
Different private assessment providers focus on different needs. Some services offer ADHD assessments, some offer autism assessments, and others offer combined ADHD and autism assessments or wider neurodevelopmental assessment support.
