Morphology

psychoeducational = educational (semi-transparent) = psycho + educate + ion + al

The base educational is clear, and psycho- is recognizable, but the full term is a specialized technical adjective for psychological and educational contexts.

Etymology

The word psychoeducational joins psycho- meaning 'mind' and educational meaning 'teaching', just like in psychology and education. So psychoeducational describes support, tests, or teaching in schools that help with learning or mental health.
