Use of sub-tests within batteries on SASC Test List
Assessors are able to use other sub tests which have not been individually cited, within an approved battery, in order to examine different areas, according to the individual's profile of need. Assessors are encouraged to review test manuals and attend CPD to fully explore their tests, particularly the new, large batteries.
In order to retain flexibility and encourage assessors to analyse their test battery and to individualise it to assessee profiles, it was not intended that the Test List be reductive, i.e. for assessors to only use those subtests of batteries that are included in the column ‘subtests that could be used to examine this area’. Rather these are included in order to support assessor’s choices.
