Is Your Child Struggling in School Despite Trying Hard?

When a child consistently struggles academically despite effort and intelligence, there is often an underlying learning difference at play. A psychoeducational evaluation identifies exactly what is happening — giving your family clarity and giving schools the documentation they need to provide support.

At CAYA World, our evaluations are thorough, evidence-based, and completed by experienced clinical psychologists. Reports are accepted by schools across Dubai and the UAE for academic accommodations.

When to Consider an Evaluation
Reading is slow, effortful, or inaccurate despite instruction
Significant difficulty with spelling, writing, or maths
Academic performance that does not match the child's intelligence
Slow processing speed or difficulty completing work in time
Memory difficulties, poor organisation, or difficulty following instructions
Teacher or school recommendations for an assessment
