Read MoreThank you very much for this timely and useful course. It was really helpful to see that impact of processing difficulties can be demonstrated in a number of the tests many of us will already have. I appreciated the opportunity to also look at and explore further, possible alternatives. Many thanks again Sally! 5 stars!

Read MoreSally-Ann always presents information in a practical an clear way. Two comments I make as regards this topic - not within Sally-Ann's control - is the value of the SDMT in picking up students with sequencing/orientation difficulties; there isn't really anything else which can flag up this type of issue which can affect their ability to copy accurately, especially if they need to copy symbolic information. Another slight regret is that the test is standardised (and I accept the limitations on this old test) on adults. Many of the students I see at university are beyond the ceiling age of the CTOPP2, so their rapid naming can only be measured qualitatively. Just a comment.
Read LessIt was really useful to look at the guidance and have this interpreted for us as so often we panic when a change is announced. Very reassuring many thanks
