Kip McGrath Dublin Tutoring

📊 Standardised test results are arriving home this week for many primary school students across Ireland.

If you’re looking at your child’s results and wondering:

❓ What do these scores actually mean?
❓ Should I be worried?
❓ How much weight should I give them?
❓ What can I do if my child didn’t perform as expected?

You’re not alone.

We’ve written a simple guide for parents explaining standardised test results, how to interpret them, and what steps you can take to support your child’s learning.

Dyslexia and ADHD are distinct neurodevelopmental conditions, each with their own profile of strengths and challenges. However, they can also co-occur, with overlapping features that may impact a child’s learning, attention, and overall academic experience. This visual outlines the key differences, as well as the shared signs often seen in a dual diagnosis. By understanding these patterns, parents and educators can better identify needs early and provide the targeted support that helps each child reach their full potential.

At Kip McGrath Rathfarnham, we bring over 20 years of experience in supporting students with dyslexia, ADHD, and dual diagnoses. We are proud to be highly recommended by both educational professionals and parents alike, providing personalised support that builds confidence and delivers meaningful progress.

We are passionate about the work we do, and seeing the positive impact that the right intervention can make is always deeply rewarding.
