I can only talk of our particular institution, but we fund all our assessments through the Access to Learning fund.  If the student is not eligible then it would be there obligation to provide the evidence. 

 

Wit regard to other evidence, we practise that it is always the student responsibility to provide evidence.  It is only those students who can access the access to learning fund, that will have the cost covered, and this is normally only  for dyslexia assessments. 

 

Now I have lit the touch paper do I stand back?

Subject: Educational psychologists assessments

 

Dear all,

 

I was wondering how many institutions pay for students to be assessed by an educational psychologist? Where does the funding come from to pay for this? Do you believe that it is  the institutions' or the students responsibility to pay for the assessment?

I know this subject has probably been covered before, but I need some indication as to what other institutions are currently doing.

 

Many Thanks
