Educator Appraisal

The Boxall profile provides a holistic assessment of a child's emotional and behavioural development, which allows you to tailor interventions to specific needs. However, there could be a scoring bias because the test is slightly objective. It's also a time consuming and expensive resource to set up in schools.

Evidence Rating

There are multiple independent trials with large samples of students from multiple different school settings and locations which show that the Boxall Profiling tool is implementable in schools and has good internal consistency and concurrent validity.
