Subject Choice Assessments
A subject choice assessment is aimed at supporting Grade 9 pupils to make informed decisions about their subject choices for their Gr 10-12 academic years. Decisions based on self-knowledge (interests, personality preferences, abilities, values) gained as a result of the assessment, combined with information about the world of studies and work, equips pupils with the ability to make informed decisions for their futures.
​
For some adolescents (and their parents), the process of choosing subjects can be stressful. Many pupils are uncertain about their choices and options and benefit from a guided and supportive process in order to help them reach clarity regarding suitable subject choices going forwards. An assessment helps pupils to engage with the process in a confident and assured manner.
​
The assessment battery includes psychometric tools that allow one to gather information regarding a pupil's personal interests, personality preferences, academic and/or cognitive abilities, and values. The test battery below gives a general guideline but the actual test battery and areas to be assessed will be finalised according to each client’s specific needs, as determined during the intake session.
