Anger Issues, Disruptive At School, Energetic Kid. Is It ADHD?

Hi I am worried about my 5 year old son. Over the past year he has become more angry & disruptive at school. We live in france & thats all he knows. He speaks very good french so I'm not sure that that's the problem. He is a very energetic little boy & is getting out of head. Not sure if he might have adhd!?!
Please help a very stressed out mum
Thanks
