Our Difference?
The Big-Picture Approach
The Ecological Approach has proven effective in ensuring sustainable success for learners across New Zealand. We achieve this by holistically assessing your child, nurturing effective home-school relationships, consolidating information from various perspectives, and planning research-based supports.
Our Assessment packages evaluate your child’s entire context, both at home and school. We administer reliable and standardised tests, as well as unstructured interviews, observations, and narrative records.
We work with your child’s school—yes, they love us! Not only do we add value to your child’s classroom context, but we also provide free schoolwide resources and solutions.
Our Values
We are dedicated to providing every child with an equal opportunity to learn, in accordance with New Zealand law. We emphasize the importance of adapting teaching methods for success beyond simply providing quality education. Our team prioritizes all children to foster inclusive education rather than focusing on a select few. By collaborating with schools, we offer practical support and guidance to help your child thrive. You can rely on us to assist in your child's learning and development.
