The digital version of GL Assessment's well established Dyscalculia Screener is an innovative online assessment that identifies dyscalculic tendencies in pupils' aged 6–14+ years and recommends intervention strategies to help them achieve their potential.

Originally in CD-ROM format, of which is still available, the online version offers teachers a range of instant scoring, analysis and reporting features including a useful individual report that is specifically designed for communication with parents.

The 30 minute test is an ideal tool for screening an entire year group, or for screening those pupils showing some signs of difficulty. It can play an important part in helping both specialist and non-specialist teachers distinguish between those individuals who have poor maths attainment and those whose difficulties are associated with dyscalculia. The screener provides a true measure of a pupil's facility with numbers through evaluating their ability to understand number size, simple addition and simple multiplication. Adaptive testing ensures that individuals enter the test at an appropriate level and are taken out of the test if questions become too difficult.

The Dyscalculia Screener Digital has been standardised, so you can be assured that results presented are accurate and reliable, whilst instant scoring and reporting saves hours of marking time. Results are easy to interpret and information on a pupil's strengths and weaknesses are detailed across each test. Standard Age Scores are provided and you will benefit from recommendations made as to the next steps in either further assessment or intervention.
