Reviewed by Gildas Garrec, CBT practitioner
Good morning,
This test brings together a parent's observations on their child's disengagement from school: involvement in schoolwork, the behaviors that move them away from school itself, the meaning the child still finds in what they do there, and the place they keep among their classmates. The report looks at each of these four areas of decline and shows which one started first. If you feel significant concern for your child, contact your local emergency services.
What you receive — a report written from your answers: what stands out, what sustains it, and where to start. This week, this month, later on.
How it is built — each axis is analyzed on its own, then cross-read with the others, through clinical reading frameworks. Your detailed answers are attached as an appendix. See an example report
The test runs over 63 questions and takes about 10 min, for a price of $3.60.
We'd also suggest reading the book Adolescence in Crisis, to take this reflection further. It's included in the price and downloadable.

QUICK ANSWER
Is my child at risk of school disengagement? — a 63-question self-assessment, about 10 min. This test brings together a parent's observations on disengagement from school: schoolwork, avoidance, the meaning school still holds, and their place among classmates. Once finished, you receive a detailed PDF report ($3.60): an interpretation of its 5 dimensions, a radar chart, up to 14 clinical reading frameworks and a personalized action plan. It is designed to help you know yourself better.
This interactive test looks at your child's involvement in schoolwork, the behaviors that move them away from school, the meaning school still has for them, their place among classmates, and readiness to change. What the test asks, for example Schoolwork If, good grade or bad, your child shows no reaction. If, when they get home, your child takes out their things and does their homework on their own, even the long assignments. Moving away from school If, in the morning, your child comes up with an excuse not to go to school: a stomach ache, sudden tiredness. If, in the morning, your child gets up and gets dressed for school without trying to stay home. The meaning of school If your child says that their future is already decided anyway. If your child sets themselves a goal and sticks to it, even in a subject that's hard for them. Their place among classmates If your child eats alone in the cafeteria, or stays apart during break time. If your child mentions classmates by name when telling you about their day. Readiness to change If what you have just described weighs on your life as a parent. If you want to take action to better support your child in this area.
About this test
▼
Dimensions assessed
- ●Your view of this disengagement or dropping out of school- The way you explain this disengagement or dropping out of school, before the test tells you anything. This section does not measure any difficulty or produce a level: it simply records your initial view.
- ●Disengagement from learning- How much investment in schoolwork remains. The report looks at change over time rather than a snapshot, because disengagement is measured by what has slipped.
- ●School avoidance- The distance your child puts between themselves and school. This dimension is read separately from the work itself: a child can keep working and no longer want to go, or the other way round.
- ●Loss of meaning and motivation- The link your child still makes between school and their own life. The report treats this dimension as the hinge: it often explains what the two previous ones observe.
- ●Social withdrawal at school- Your child's social place at school, treated as a factor in its own right: the report reads it independently of their grades, which it sometimes comes before.
- ●Readiness to change- Your availability as a parent to step in now. The report treats this as a question of timing as much as will: what is suggested depends on where you are right now.
Reference frameworks and authors
School disengagement is neither laziness nor ill will — it is almost always a signal that something else is at play (fatigue, anxiety, loss of meaning, family or school context). This test helps identify signs; understanding what they express happens with your child, and if needed, with a professional.
Why take this test?

This test brings together a parent's observations on their child's disengagement from school: involvement in schoolwork, the behaviors that move them away from school itself, the meaning the child still finds in what they do there, and the place they keep among their classmates.

The questionnaire explores 5 areas: Your view of this disengagement or dropping out of school, Disengagement from learning, School avoidance, Loss of meaning and motivation, Social withdrawal at school. Your answers support reflection, not a diagnosis. A separate module explores readiness to change; it is not another trait of the model presented.
