a complete approach
Why use Verbal Reasoning?
• The assessment highlights pupils’ skills in verbal thinking above and
beyond their formal literacy skills
• You will obtain a measure of your pupils’ potential to learn across the
curriculum using the English language
• You will be able to compare your pupils’ results with the national
average through the identification of Standard Age Scores
• Results can be used to aid individual target-setting and learning
programmes
• End of Key Stage 2 and 3 indicators are available
. . . and Verbal Reasoning Digital?
• Digital testing removes the burden of test administration, as all practice,
instructions and timings are computer-administered
• Instant scoring gives you results at the touch of a button, saving you
hours of marking time
• Instant diagnostic reports are delivered straight to your desktop,
enabling you to analyse results with ease and integrate them with other
school data sets
• Computer-based assessment often feels more relevant and less
daunting for pupils and fast feedback is proven to be more motivating

Verbal Reasoning and Non-Verbal
Reasoning in our portfolio
Verbal Reasoning and Non-Verbal Reasoning can be used as an
alternative to the Cognitive Abilities Test (CAT) (pages 10–18),
particularly for those wanting a slimmer and shorter battery to
measure a pupil’s ability. The reasoning tests are ideal for use with
primary children of who may find the three CAT test batteries too
long.
