A full academic assessment (must include, at minimum, assessment of core academic skills, including reading, spelling, writing, reading comprehension and mathematics).A measure of intellectual functioning (IQ test).be completed when the child’s age was chronologically appropriate for grade three or later, or when the child was at least 8 years old.be completed by a psychologist or psychological associate who is registered with the College of Psychologists of Ontario.Parents and guardians of current YRDSB students are also able to have their child’s needs considered for possible Gifted Identification by providing a thorough psychological assessment to their regular home school. The purpose of this meeting is to decide if it is reasonable to request a referral for further assessment with a member of the YRDSB Psychological Services department. If a student demonstrates the need for additional services, the teacher is encouraged to bring information about the student to an In-School Team Meeting. Students new to YRDSB who did not participate in the Grade 3 Gifted screening may also be screened for possible identification as a Gifted student at a post Grade 3 level. Those students who meet the YRDSB intellectual criterion of a score at, or above the 98th percentile rank on the General Ability Index of the intellectual screening measure (WISC V) will be considered by the IPRC (Identification Placement Review Committee). If a student meets the CCAT criterion, they will be referred for Stage Two in the process, a standardized cognitive screening measure with a member of the YRDSB Psychological Services department. This screening involves a two-stage process: Stage One involves the administration of a group test of cognitive abilities, the Canadian Cognitive Abilities Test (CCAT) to all grade three students. System-wide screening for the identification of Gifted YRDSB students takes place each year in late November to early December.
