Identify the underlying reasons behind school avoidance with the School Refusal Assessment Scale – Revised (SRAS-R). This widely used tool helps uncover the emotional and behavioural drivers of school refusal in children and young people.
Developed by experts in child psychology, the SRAS-R includes 24 questions that explore how frequently a child experiences certain thoughts, feelings, or behaviours related to school. Responses are scored on a scale from 0 (“never”) to 6 (“always”).
Our team at ASD Helping Hands will analyse the results and provide you with a personalised report that clearly outlines which of the four common school refusal functions may be present, ranging from anxiety and social discomfort to the pursuit of rewards at home.
