What you get after screening
Individual reports
Clear pupil reports showing each child’s profile, key areas of strength and challenge, and practical next steps.
Cohort analysis
See patterns across a class, year group or wider cohort, helping SENCos identify priority pupils, common areas of need and possible intervention groups.
Tests for a wide-range of need
Talamo features three assessments designed to spot a wide range of need.
Cognitive & Dyslexia
Dyslexia can affect how pupils process language, remember information and build fluent reading and spelling skills. This condition and other cognitive tasks are extremely important to measure at school and are often overlooked.
Areas tested
Reading, Spelling, Phonological Awareness, Working Memory, Processing Speed, Visual Ability, Verbal Ability.
Maths Difficulty & Dyscalculia
Maths difficulties can affect how pupils understand number, solve problems, remember procedures and apply skills in class. These barriers are often missed when pupils appear to be coping in other areas of learning.
Domains tested
Symbolic numbers, Quantity, Maths Vocabulary, Basic Calculation, Applied Maths, Working Memory, and Processing Speed.
Executive Function & ADHD
Executive functioning affects attention, organisation and self-regulation. Screening helps schools understand what may be getting in the way of learning.
Domains tested
Sustained attention, response inhibition, cognitive flexibility, planning, processing speed and working memory.
