# Conduct-Dissocial Disorder & an AbilityScore of 300–400: what to do next

Publisher: Pinnacle Blooms Network / Bharath Healthcare Laboratories Private Limited

An AbilityScore of 300–400 is a baseline to grow from, not a ceiling. For a child with Conduct-Dissocial Disorder, the next step is a clinician-guided plan focused on emotional regulation, family routines and school support — then re-measuring against this same baseline to see real progress.

*Seeing a number on your child's assessment can feel like a verdict — but it isn't one. It's a starting line, and your child is already on the move.*

## In short
An AbilityScore® in the 300–400 band is a snapshot of where your child stands today across the skills that matter most — it is a baseline to grow from, never a ceiling. For a child with [Conduct-Dissocial Disorder](/conduct-dissocial-disorder) (ICD-11 6C91), the next step is to turn that snapshot into a plan: a clinician-guided programme focused on emotional regulation, social understanding and the relationships at home and school that surround your child. Progress is then re-measured against this same baseline, so you can see real movement, not guesswork.

## What to do next
Conduct-Dissocial Disorder is supported, not "fixed" overnight — and the evidence is genuinely hopeful when families act early and together:

- **Make the score a plan, not a label.** Sit with your clinician to translate the band into 2–3 concrete goals — calmer transitions, fewer aggressive outbursts, repairing a relationship at school.
- **Centre the family.** The strongest evidence for conduct difficulties points to parent- and family-focused approaches: predictable routines, warm but firm boundaries, and coaching for the adults around the child.
- **Build the supporting skills.** Many children also benefit from work on language, attention and emotional vocabulary — being able to *name* a feeling is the first step to managing it.
- **Loop in school early.** A shared approach between home, therapist and teachers prevents the child from getting different signals in different places.

A score in this band simply tells you where to begin and how much support to surround your child with right now — it says nothing about who they will become.

## The Pinnacle way
Your child's Developmental measurement supports care planning; diagnosis requires an appropriately qualified healthcare professional., under the care of a qualified clinician — never from an online figure or form alone. At Pinnacle, your clinician reads the 300–400 band against your child's *own* [baseline and how it is calculated](/ask/what-is-the-abilityscore-and-how-is-it-calculated), builds a [behavioural and family therapy](/behavioural-therapy) plan, and re-measures so progress becomes visible. Drawing on 25 million+ therapy sessions and 4.95 lakh+ families served across [our network](/), the goal is the same throughout: a calmer, more connected child, and a family that feels equipped rather than overwhelmed.

## Trusted sources
WHO ICD-11 (6C91, Conduct-Dissocial Disorder); NICE guidance on antisocial behaviour and conduct disorders in children; American Academy of Pediatrics guidance on behavioural support; Pinnacle Blooms Network clinical studies.

**Next step —** A score is a starting line, not a sentence. [Book a clinician-guided review](https://www.pinnacleblooms.org/enroll-autism-speech-aba-therapies-india) at your nearest Pinnacle centre to turn this baseline into a clear, hopeful plan.

This is general information, not a diagnosis — individual assessment and diagnosis require an appropriately qualified healthcare professional.
