Questions about inclusive education
School psychological diagnostics
School psychological diagnostics are understood as support diagnostics aimed at understanding a child's abilities and difficulties, not with the goal of issuing a diagnosis or "testing through" the child. They aim to assess the child's performance capacity in the best possible testing atmosphere to gain an overview and approaches for support counseling.
Individual academic performance may deviate from what a psychometric test measures due to other influencing variables. Therefore, in addition to the test score, the work attitude during testing, the exploration of further data with parents and the child, as well as observations from the teacher at school are important.
Contact with the teacher takes place only after agreement and permission from the parents.
Training and support groups
To a limited extent, training and support groups for elementary school children are occasionally offered. Possible topics could include social skills or spelling and math skills.
