Your child isn't lazy or "not trying." Their brain may be working harder than it should.
If focus, finishing tasks, and following instructions are a daily battle, weak attention skills — not effort — are usually the cause. A cognitive skills assessment shows you exactly why.

You've read the ADHD articles. The problem is, you can't fix what you can't see.
Why an assessment is the right first step
Attention is not one thing — it's several cognitive skills (sustained attention, divided attention, working memory, processing speed). Our 1-hour cognitive assessment, using the Gibson Test of Cognitive Skills, pinpoints which specific skills are weak so you stop guessing and start solving the real problem.

Here's how it works...
Schedule a Cognitive Skills Assessment
The Cognitive Skills Assessment takes around 1 hour to complete. It is designed like a series of brain games to reduce stress on the student.

Consultation with the centre director
The centre director will explain the results of the assessment to you and will recommend the best way to proceed to help your child overcome their attention and focus struggles.
You will receive a detailed report of your child’s unique cognitive profile to take away.

See your child thrive with the right program
With improvements in attention, cognitive skills and IQ, your child will have the right tools to learn faster and easier. You can expect improvements in relationships and more cooperative behaviour in many aspects of their lives. Most importantly, these improvements will result in greater confidence and self-esteem.

Why parents choose us
Our experience with The brain and Learning Institute had been truly transformative. We're absolutely blown away with the progress. We have gone from reading simple books to tackling longer ones, with the range of 200-250 page. This journey has not only improved the reading skills, but have significantly boosted the self-confidence. It's been an incredible journey of growth, exceeding all our initial expectations and we are excited to see what we accomplish next.
Laila - mother of 9 year old with weak reading skills
This training really works! My son is improving in a very short time. I really wished I knew about this training 5 years ago. The team here are very professional and really know what everyone child or person needs. Every child is different so do the training, my son’s training is trailered to his needs, which I find this very interesting. Definitely I recommend this training and this center.
Nadia - mother of 8 year old
My daughter 15yrs and has struggled all her life academically & emotionally. Over the years we have tried so many ways to help her with her dyslexia but still she continued to fall behind at School. Since starting The Brain & Learning program she had her first positive report and grades are improving. She has so much more confidence and when she reads books she said they make more sense to her. I would like to thank the team for being so patient with her, and to Gemma for supporting me through this journey.
