It’s important to take some time to carefully read through the diagnostic assessment report. Give yourself the space to absorb the findings and understand the recommendations fully, rather than trying to act on everything at once. Once you’ve reviewed the report, consider slowly introducing the suggested strategies or adjustments in a way that feels manageable.

Make sure to share the report with the relevant support personnel, such as the SENDCO at your child’s school, or the appropriate department – this could be a university disability services office, or your manager/HR team at work. Having these key individuals informed is essential for coordinating support effectively. Nobody will know about the diagnosis unless you share this with them – we only share the outcome with you (unless you have instructed us otherwise).

Arrange a meeting to discuss the findings and explore a clear way forward. Together, you can identify what accommodations or strategies will be most helpful and practical. This collaborative approach ensures that the individual receives the support they need and that the recommendations from the report are implemented in a meaningful and sustainable way.

Finally, have a look through the handy links and resources we have provided below – they offer additional guidance, practical strategies and support options to help you put the recommendations into practice.
