Core Tip	New and updated, but still discrepant, recommendations on screening for scoliosis have been produced in recent years. The growing differences regard standards of recommendation development and principles of screening. The advocates tend to promote possible specific benefits from early treatment implemented thanks to screening testing, whilst the opponents tend to apply contemporary generic principles of screening programmes as preventive services, and the criteria of trustworthy guideline development, underlining possible harms following overdetection, stigmatisation and unnecessary treatment. It seems that clinical and person-oriented, rather than school-based, traditional screening procedures, have been emerging as solutions for the future.
