Starting formal schooling is a crucial transition for your child. Give your child the best possible start in kindergarten that ensures that he or she becomes a happy and confident learner. Global Education Academy can prepare your child by offering targeted kindergarten tutoring as well as specialised assessment in all areas of literacy and numeracy.

The kindergarten assessments available for your child

Assessment is a key component in determining an entry point for any intervention at any stage in a child’s learning.

This is particularly important for kindergarten children so that their program is specifically designed to meet their individual needs.

The assessments are:

1) The Early Learning Profile- these are prerequisite reading skills, phonemic knowledge and processing, segmenting and blending skills, sight word acquisition and oral reading fluency.

2) Preparation for the kindergarten assessment program (Best Start) in all areas of literacy.

Following the assessment your child’s outcomes will be measured on a regular basis through a value-added approach. This means that we specifically determine the skills your child has learned in any given time frame and target the skills that are yet to be learned and improved.
