THE BASELINE ASSESSMENT!

At The Creative Hive, our baseline assessment is a 90-minute diagnostic designed to give us a deeper understanding of how your child learns.

 

We focus primarily on English and study habits, looking beyond marks to understand how a student thinks, processes information, and expresses their ideas.

During the assessment, we explore:

  • How your child makes meaning and understands information
  • How they process instructions and respond to cues
  • How they organise and express their thoughts
  • Their use of language in both written and spoken formats
  • Their ability to turn ideas into clear, structured answers
  • How confidently they communicate across different formats (e.g. speech, poetry, written responses)

We also consider how these skills impact overall school performance, including:

  • Understanding of schoolwork
  • Ability to apply knowledge across different subjects

This assessment helps us build a comprehensive learner profile. This highlights your child’s strengths, areas for growth, and key opportunities for development, particularly in language, comprehension, and expression.
