Need to know: Supporting students with ADHD
If your child is struggling in the classroom or you feel the teacher needs extra information to support them, we’ve just released the “Supporting Students with ADHD” booklet.
Educators are overwhelmed with the fallout from COVID lockdowns, procedural overheads, and lack of support. Empower your child’s teacher with knowledge about ADHD and practical strategies to use in the classroom. Fill out the “About Me” template with your child’s important information to set them up for success.
All the information and strategies can be used at home.
