Gross Motor Delay with an AbilityScore of 600–700: your next steps

A score is not a verdict — it's a starting line, and you're standing on it with a clear path ahead.

In short

An AbilityScore® in the 600–700 band for Gross Motor Delay gives you and your clinician a clear, measured baseline of where your child's big movements — sitting, crawling, standing, walking, balance, coordination — are right now. The right next step is simple: turn that baseline into a plan. Book a clinician consultation to confirm the findings, set personalised motor goals, and begin a structured therapy pathway — then re-measure to see progress against your child's own starting point.

What this band means for you

Think of the AbilityScore® as a snapshot, not a label. A 600–700 band tells the clinician where to focus and how to pace support — it does not predict your child's ceiling. Gross motor skills respond strongly to early, consistent, play-based practice, and children often move in spurts after a plateau. What matters now is converting the number into goals you can see in daily life:

• Stability first — head control, sitting balance, and core strength as the foundation.
• Mobility next — crawling, pulling to stand, cruising, and steps.
• Coordination — climbing, kicking, navigating uneven ground with confidence.

Your clinician will map which of these your child is ready for next, so therapy builds on strength rather than chasing every milestone at once.

Your next steps, in order

1. Confirm with a clinician. The band is a measure, not a diagnosis — a qualified physiotherapist reviews it alongside your child's history and a hands-on assessment.
2. Set 3–4 personalised motor goals. Specific, achievable, and tied to everyday routines.
3. Begin structured therapy and weave short practice into play at home.
4. Re-measure after an agreed period to track progress against your child's own baseline — not against other children.
