ASCA ASSESSMENT - Scotland

Hi

we recently went through the ASCA assessment - autistic spectrum community assessment which was held in my daughters primary school.  The decision was "no" she does not has autism.   The school are now saying that she definitely has autistic traits.  Where do we go from here?  She has previously been diagnosed with dyspraxia.

  • I have not heard of that test.  But if you feel your child needs hellp get her freferred for the ADOS test (Autism diagnostic test) would need to be referred by school nurse or docter to someone trained to carry out the assesement.  I live in Scotland also my son is just about to undergoe the ADOS test but is now Homeschooled.

    Good luck
