ADHD Initial Screening Checklist
This checklist is designed to support practitioners to identify children that may display ADHD-type
behaviours and/or tendencies. This screen is not an exhaustive list of tendencies nor is it designed
to replace any professional or medical assessment. Results should be viewed on a sliding scale from
no tendencies displayed to regular occurrence keeping in mind that some children may display these
tendencies who do not have ADHD.
Conduct a classroom observation, then, following the observation, please read the statement then tick
whether you feel the pupil demonstrates the behaviour 1 (never), 2 (rarely), 3 (sometimes), 4 (often),
or 5 (very often).
