Our goal is to only assess students when deemed absolutely necessary, as we do not want to ever over assess a client. The decision as to what, if any assessment is required, is determined on a purely individual basis.
The goal of assessment however, is to fully understand all the client’s learning strengths, weaknesses and needs, so the most effective interventions can be designed and implemented.
Often clients have had multiple assessments with various professionals such as Speech Therapists, Occupational Therapists, Behavioural Optometrists, School Counsellors etc. Our Psychologist Nicole Martin can help you synthesise this information.

Please contact us if you are interested in enrolling in Specialised Lessons or Tutoring.

When you enrol at Cumberland Education, for Specialised Lessons and Tutoring, you are allocated a time and day that is convenient for you, for example, “Tuesday afternoon at 4pm”. We consider this is ‘your time’. If you need to change your day or time, we will endeavour to accommodate such a request. Whilst no guarantee can be given, we are usually able to accommodate changes to existing clients.

However, if you want to un-enrol from our centre’s Specialised Lessons and Tutoring, a one week notice period is required in terms 1-3, and a two week notice is required in term 4.

Specialised Lessons and Tutoring are paid for via direct debit or are invoiced termly.

If an absence occurs, as a matter of courtesy, it is appreciated that you phone to let us know in advance.
