The following may be of some interest for those in the Manawatu area:

Andrew Salisbury, a trainee Educational Psychologist, is offering free Woodcock Johnson III IQ tests for children aged 7 – 14.  The Woodcock Johnson III test returns a description of the general cognitive ability of a person based on age.  Andrew is able to administer the test for free as part of his study, but the test results are not considered to be official as he is not yet fully qualified.

The test is useful for guiding your planning and teaching technique to better meet the strengths and weaknesses your child might have.

If you live within a half hour drive of Palmerston North, Andrew is willing to come to you to administer the test.  This opportunity is only available for the next two weeks.  For further information you can email to lsl@clear.net.nz or call on 021 2674190.
