New 2025 Report Format for Diagnostic Assessment of SpLDs now available

The Report Format for Diagnostic Assessment of SpLDs 2025 is now downloadable from the SASC website. This format will be required for use from 1 January 2027, but may be used before that date.

We have incorporated the additional guidance into the format document so they can be read together. However, to assist accessibility for a range of users, we have made the format and guidance available in 3 different ways:

• the format with the comments, Format for a Diagnostic Assessment Report for SpLDs June 25
• the format minus the additional guidance in comments, Format for a Diagnostic Assessment Report for SpLDs NO COMMENTS

and,

• guidance notes collected together as a separate document, Guidance notes to accompany SASC Report Format 2025 FINAL.

All additional guidance notes are cross-referenced with [AG] and relevant sequential number. This means that if you prefer a clean version of the format minus the additional guidance in comment boxes, you can use this and then cross reference to the collated list of guidance comments. Alternatively, you can access the main document and just click to open the comment box to access the guidance that immediately relates to the part you are reading. We recommend that you download and read these documents in Word on a computer or laptop.
