Career Day at Dinwiddie Primary School 🎓✨

On Friday, 14 August 2026, I had the privilege of speaking to the Grade 7 learners at Dinwiddie Primary School as part of their Career Day workshop.

I had the opportunity to share with the learners what it means to be an Educational Psychologist, including what my role involves, the different ways I support children and adolescents, and what the journey to becoming an Educational Psychologist looks like.

It was wonderful to engage with these young learners and have meaningful conversations about careers, their interests, strengths and the exciting possibilities that lie ahead. 🌱

Career exploration at this stage is not about having all the answers, it’s about encouraging learners to become curious about themselves, their strengths and interests, the world of work, and the many different pathways available to them.

Thank you to Dinwiddie Primary School for the opportunity to be part of such an important day, and to the Grade 7 learners for their enthusiasm, thoughtful questions and participation. 💛

Helping young people understand themselves and make informed decisions about their future is such a privilege.

🎓 Does your Grade 9 or 11 learner know WHY they're choosing the subjects they're choosing?

Most teenagers pick subjects based on what their friends are doing, or what their parents expect. Very few make the choice based on a real understanding of their own strengths, interests, and aptitudes. And that mismatchshows up in Grade 10, 11, and 12 in the form of frustration, underperformance, and a growing sense of being in the wrong place.

That's exactly why we created this workshop. 💜

What is a Psychoeducational Assessment, and when might your child need one?

Many parents notice that their child is working hard at school but still seems to be struggling academically, emotionally, or behaviourally. A psychoeducational assessment can help uncover the reasons behind these challenges.

A psychoeducational assessment is a comprehensive evaluation that explores a child’s cognitive abilities, academic skills, learning profile, emotional functioning, and behavioural patterns. The goal is not to “label” a child, but to better understand how they learn and what support they may need to thrive.

These assessments can be helpful when a child is experiencing:
• Difficulties with reading, writing, or mathematics
• Attention and concentration challenges
• Learning differences
• Academic underachievement
• Emotional or behavioural concerns impacting learning
• Questions regarding school readiness or subject choices

The insights gained from an assessment can guide interventions, accommodations, and support strategies both at home and at school, helping each child reach their full potential.

Every child has unique strengths and challenges. Understanding their learning profile is often the first step toward meaningful support and success.
