The scores provided on the Development Summary report can assist administrators in evaluating how their agency(ies), center(s), and class(es) are doing. The Developmental Level (DL) Score can be used to assist in goal setting, planning, and the documentation of outcomes. Refer to the Score Types page for additional information.
The norm-referenced scores provided in the Development Summary report may help be useful in those instances in which decisions must be made based on where a child stands in a norm group. For example, knowing the position of the child in relation to the norm group may be helpful in arriving at a decision to refer the child for diagnostic testing. In some cases, norm-referenced scores may be used to assist in planning learning opportunities. The report can help administrators identify class and center variability in children’s performance in a particular area of development, as well as identifying which centers/classrooms are doing well, and which ones might need additional help.
