Schools and pupil referral units

Schools can purchase most of our assessments, such as CAT4, PT Series, NGRT, PASS and many of our SEND screeners. However, to purchase a select number of our assessments, schools must employ, or use the professional services of, one of the qualified health professionals below. Where more than one professional is highlighted for a single assessment in the table below, only one is required to purchase the assessment.

Specialist teachers must hold a qualification in keeping with those outlined below. With regards to ex-teachers, we do not sell to those not in a school.

• Value-Added Service: your school must be a CAT4 customer to sign up for the Value-Added Service. Please go to this page for more information: Value-Added Service - GL Assessment (gl-assessment.co.uk).
• Exact is available for purchase by schools, qualified teachers, other educational institutions and some other professionals connected with education. When used as evidence to support part 2 of the JCQ Form 8 application, JCQ AARA specifies that the assessment must be carried out by a suitably qualified person. Please refer to JCQ AARA guidance for details of the current qualification requirements. Please go to this page for more information: Exact Downloads.​

As well as creating an online account, all customers must provide qualifications for online orders to be dispatched. This is a one-off process and, in most cases, will be completed without us needing to contact you, but we may ask you to demonstrate your qualifications if you are new to GL Assessment. The information you provide enables us to identify which assessments you are eligible to purchase and administer, so please provide as much detail as possible. Copies of qualifications must be produced and failure to do so will delay the process of your application. For international customers, equivalent accredited international qualifications are accepted.

Please note that some of our assessments which require qualifications cannot be sent to a home address.  If you have any queries, please contact [email protected] or [email protected].
