The assessment will be conducted during office hours, i.e. Monday to Thursday: 09:00-13:00 / 14:30-17:45; Friday: 09:00-13:00 / 14:30-17:30; the assessment time varies from 1.5 to 2.5 hours according to individual student’s situation. If it is necessary, a Declaration for Attending Therapy Assessment will be issued upon the request of parents.

On the day of completion of the therapy assessment, the assessor will explain to the parents about their child’s performance and assessment results as well as provide recommendations for home training.
