Reassess — step 6
When should my child be reassessed?
Most children on a Pinnacle therapy plan are reassessed every 3 months, with earlier reviews if goals are met, progress plateaus, or life changes occur. Reassessment compares progress against the starting profile and keeps the plan tuned. A clinical AbilityScore® and any diagnosis are formed only at a Pinnacle Blooms Network centre under qualified clinician care.
A reassessment is not a test to pass — it's a gentle checkpoint to celebrate progress and keep your child's plan perfectly tuned.
In short
Most children on a Pinnacle therapy plan are reassessed every 3 months — a structured review that compares where your child started with where they are now, so goals stay fresh and the plan keeps pace with their growth. Your therapy team may suggest a check sooner if your child surges ahead, hits a plateau, or if life changes (a new school, a move, an illness). Reassessment is a normal, planned step — not a sign that anything has gone wrong.Why and when reassessment happens
- Every quarter (around 3 months): the usual rhythm, giving enough time for skills to build while keeping the plan current.
- When goals are met early: if your child masters their targets, a review sets the next set of joyful, achievable milestones.
- At a plateau: if progress slows, reassessment helps the team adjust the approach, intensity or focus.
- At transitions: starting school, changing routines, or after an illness can all be good moments to review.
- When you notice something new: a parent's observation is always a valid reason to ask for a check.
Reassessment looks at the same domains measured at the start, so progress is visible and the next steps are clear for both you and the team.

Frequently asked
How often is my child reassessed?
Usually every 3 months. This gives skills time to build while keeping the plan current. Your team may suggest a sooner review if goals are met early, progress plateaus, or life circumstances change.
Does a reassessment mean something is wrong?
Not at all. Reassessment is a planned, normal checkpoint to celebrate progress and keep goals fresh — it is part of every child's journey, not a sign of a problem.
Can I request a reassessment early?
Yes. If you notice your child surging ahead, slowing down, or facing a big change like a new school, your observation is always a valid reason to ask the team for a review.
