Hi I'm 19 I'm looking for the correct places to look for an assessment. I have found British Dyslexia Association but want some advice on the best place for it.

I found it useful to go for the full assessment - then you get a complete picture. I saved up for it and it was well worth it. After a lot of research I went for a fully qualified Educational and Occupational Psychologist near me. I read their statement and felt confident they were neutral.

Ok thanks for the advice I have seen online a education psychologist but I'm looking for a full assessment and I want the report too I have tried asking special needs person who deals with that subject at college but wasn't much help for me so trying to find one on my own. I also don't want to spend a fortune on a test either as I looked at the BDA and they wanted £720 but i need to get one done as soon as I can but I need to find one that is good and is trustful

Any educational psychologist can do an assessment I used BDA and ended up paying for them to set up meeting so probably better to book direct with the ed psychologist direct

Yeah I seen that they charge £720 which is a lot of money don't mind paying but is it worth all that money
