Dear Katie,

We have developed such a test for Grammar (morpho-syntax) and 
Phonology-- which are standardised-- so if a child is AT RISK for 
reading problems, it will pick them up-- and provide a standard 
percentile score.
It is called the GAPS and you can find details on www.dldcn.com
It is standardised from 3: 6 to 6:6.  It is not a questionaire but an 
actual test that parents , teachers etc (anyone in fact) can 
administer. The development and standardisation was conducted on both 
non-professionals and professionals administering the test

Hope this helps
best wishes
Heather
