2024 to be announced.

We are inviting all Teachers, SNA’s, SEN Coordinators to attend this online training to improve their understanding and knowledge on ADHD and give them the strategies and methods to help, support and get the best from an ADHD child in your classroom.

The skills explored will increase classroom productivity and attendance, so improving confidence and peer to peer relationships in pupils with ADHD and engagement of Educators, improving understanding and awareness of ADHD nationwide. This programme will motivate teachers to become ADHD champions in their school, enabling them to take appropriate individual and collective action within their schools towards a positive classroom experience for all.

Our ADHD course for educators is structured in three sections:

1) What ADHD is and isn’t, including up-to-date research, key features,  diagnostic criteria comorbidities, executive functioning impairments, emotional dysregulation and the different presentations of ADHD, including gender.

2) The learner’s experience with ADHD, including working with parents.

3) Strategies that work in the classroom- including support for executive functioning, literacy, anxiety, movement and activity and therapeutic approaches.

What the teacher had to say after completing the training: 

  • “Great training with a lot of practical tools to support my student”
  • “Given by a teacher to teachers.  Extremely interesting, and quick moving.”
  • ” Can’t wait to introduce new ways to support my ADHD students!”
