You’re probably viewing this because your child scored high on the domain of attention and activity in My Mind Check.
First, My Mind Check does not make a diagnosis relating to attention. This is best done by a health professional. But it can tell us if your child has expressed concerns about concentration when they did the check-in.
Attention relates to how children and young people focus on tasks, and how they maintain their concentration to that task without being distracted. It also includes the ability to effectively switch attention between tasks (for example, completing different elements of homework). Many students can find it difficult to concentrate for sustained periods at school or may become restless throughout the day.
