If your child is currently enrolled at SEK International, or preparing to apply, a private psychoeducational evaluation may be recommended in the following scenarios:
School-Initiated Concerns: Teachers and academic staff at SEK International may request an assessment when a student is not performing to their full potential, despite adequate teaching and support. These evaluations help determine whether learning differences such as dyslexia, dyscalculia, or ADHD are contributing factors, and whether accommodations or interventions are appropriate.
Admissions Requirements: During the admissions process, SEK International’s team may request a comprehensive evaluation for new applicants whose previous school reports indicate the need for additional academic or behavioral support.
Parental Observations: Parents are often the first to recognize when something is not quite right. Whether your child is struggling academically, finding it difficult to focus, or experiencing emotional challenges, a full psychoeducational assessment can bring clarity and direction. Our evaluations are conducted by British and American registered Educational Psychologists with extensive experience in international school settings.
University Applications & Extra Time for Exams: For SEK International students preparing to apply to competitive universities in the US, UK, Canada, or Australia, formal documentation of a learning profile is essential when applying for exam accommodations.

Why Families at SEK International Riyadh Need Internationally Recognized Psychoeducational Assessments
International school families at SEK International often face serious limitations when relying on local educational psychologists. Most local assessments do not follow globally accepted frameworks like the DSM-5 (Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders) or ICD-11 (International Classification of Diseases), and tend to focus narrowly on traditional learning issues such as reading or maths delays.
What’s often missing is a comprehensive evaluation of emotional wellbeing, factors like anxiety, executive functioning challenges, or school-based stress that significantly affect a student’s academic performance.
This can lead to partial or inaccurate diagnoses that lack the international credibility required for exam accommodations or university applications abroad.
Assessments from local practitioners are frequently rejected by exam boards and admissions offices in the UK, US, Canada, and Australia, forcing families to repeat the entire process.
For globally mobile families at SEK International, a full international-standard psychoeducational evaluation is essential. Our assessments are conducted by British and American registered psychologists, follow DSM-5 and ICD-11 guidelines, and are accepted by all major exam boards and international universities.
