WellComm Screening tool for nursery

Hi does anyone know about this screening tool?

I've got a nearly 29 month old and they said he should be at 4 but he's working at level 3. But it's not an issue as he was a point of level 4 and the test was done a few weeks and he is doing those things now.

Another mum with a child 8 months old stated their child was working 2 levels above what they should be???

I'm now worried mine my child isn't progressing

I train people to use WellComm, honestly there's nothing to worry about. I think your nursery probably need to attend some training, they've worried you for no reason at all!

What do you mean?

I have tried to find the resources online but they aren't forthcoming (I assume you need to pay).

No the child is 8 months older then mine..I thought they just get assigned a level according to their age? And traffic light system if achieving it?

An 8 month old working 2 levels above?! I haven’t got the assessments at home but im
sure that’s unlikely! I wouldn’t worry just ignore that parent and work on the areas your child struggled with.
