Focus Assessment

Discover WHY your Child's behaviours are happening and HOW to help

Prevention is better than cure – and understanding is the first step.

Imagine being able to pinpoint exactly what’s holding your child back, whether it's difficulty sitting still, zoning out during homework, or constant frustration with simple tasks. That’s where our Focus Assessment steps in, providing a true “aha” moment for parents and teachers. This scientifically validated, standardized assessment offers an objective measure of your child’s attentional control, uncovering the underlying reasons for focus and behaviour challenges. With this tool, we help you understand why these behaviours are happening – and what you can do about them.

How the Focus Assessment Brings Clarity

To target specific cognitive skills

The Focus Assessment is designed to dive deep, measuring your child’s ability to stay focused on important tasks while tuning out distractions. This isn’t just any assessment – it’s a scientifically grounded tool that provides reliable, objective data, assessing four specific areas that impact learning and behaviour:

Consistency: Can your child keep focus over time, even with repetitive tasks? This insight reveals why they might struggle to start or finish assignments reliably, especially if they’re managing ADHD. If you notice they have “good days and bad days,” consistency is often a core factor.

Performance ( Processing Speed): Is it tough for them to keep up? Processing speed gives insights into how efficiently your child completes tasks on time. When performance lags, tasks can feel endless, leading to frustration and missed details.

Impulsivity: Are careless mistakes common? Impulsivity can lead to rushed work and avoidable errors. This part of the assessment shows if your child’s reactions are quick and without thought – something that can impact learning and social interactions alike.

Distractions: Do sights and sounds throw them off? Measuring their reaction to visual and auditory distractions shows if they have difficulty filtering out irrelevant information, which can make busy environments challenging for focus.

Start with Our Quick FOCUS Behaviour Questionnaire

Every behaviour tells a story, and our Quick Behaviour Questionnaire is the first step to understanding your child’s attention struggles. Designed to help you identify patterns in focus, impulsivity, and task completion, this short check-in connects the dots between daily behaviours and underlying cognitive challenges. It’s the perfect introduction before exploring the full Focus Assessment for deeper insights.

What these insights mean for parents and teachers

For Parents: This isn’t just an assessment – it’s a window into why your child may struggle with focus, homework, or daily routines. The assessment gives you concrete, data-backed insights that make it easier to support your child effectively at home and share valuable information with their teachers.

For Teachers: The Focus Assessment sheds light on classroom behaviours that often go unexplained. By understanding the cognitive foundations of behavior, you can create effective accommodations and strategies that help each student focus and succeed.

Your Child’s Personalised Report

After completing the Focus Assessment, you’ll receive a personalised, data-driven report that shows exactly where your child’s attention challenges lie – and how severe they are. This standardised, objective information forms the basis for a targeted, science-backed plan, empowering you with practical strategies to guide your child from struggling to thriving.
