Comprehensive ADHD assessments that go well beyond a checklist to uncover the full cognitive and emotional profile of each child.

We understand that ADHD is more than distractibility or restlessness—it’s a condition that affects executive functioning, memory, learning, and emotional regulation. That’s why we offer a comprehensive ADHD assessment only after a full Educational Assessment and General Screening have been completed.

This approach ensures a well-rounded understanding of each child’s cognitive profile before making any diagnostic conclusions.  A staged process:

• Helps rule out other factors so that an accurate, evidence-based diagnosis can be made.
• Ensures recommendations are specific, relevant, and effective.

Our ADHD Assessments Include:
​Cognitive Tests of Attention & Memory

• Sustained attention and response inhibition tasks (e.g., Continuous Performance Test)
• ​Working memory assessments, including auditory and visual tasks
• Processing speed and mental efficiency measures

These tools provide objective data on how well your child can focus, hold information in mind, and manage tasks over time.

Executive Functioning Assessment

• Planning, organisation, and problem-solving abilities
• Cognitive flexibility and self-monitoring
• Impulse control and behavioural regulation

ADHD often presents as a breakdown in these executive skills, which are critical for success in school and daily life.

Behavioural & Emotional Rating Scales

• Parent and teacher behaviour inventories normed by age (e.g., Conners 4).
  
• An emotional functioning review can also help to differentiate ADHD from anxiety, mood issues, or trauma.
