A formal educational assessment that screens for the risk of dyslexia. We recommend doing the Dyslexia Index with the KTEA-3. But, families can take the Dyslexia Index alone.

Where
Students take the assessment at the East Vancouver or North Vancouver Learning Centres.
When
Apply now to set up your dyslexia screening.
Program Description
The Dyslexia Index is a brief dyslexia screening tool. It assesses the risk of a student having dyslexia. It is a great tool to help you decide whether your child needs a full Psychoeducational Assessment (Psych Ed).
The report gives you valuable information and helps you communicate with schools.
Cost
- Our sliding scale is applied to this assessment.
- The Dyslexia Index is $225.
- The Dyslexia Index and the Academic Assessment (KTEA-3) together are $475.
