Course outline:

This seminar will unpack the realities of ADHD and its commonly co-occurring conditions, moving beyond labels to explore the underlying traits that influence learning, behaviour, and social interaction. By focusing on developmental differences, delegates will gain practical insight into how best to support children and young people with ADHD in both academic and boarding environments.

Training topics will include the neuroscience behind ADHD, how ADHD presents as a developmental difference, and an introduction to the SF3R approach: Structure, Flexibility, Rapport, Relationships, and Resilience.

Learning outcomes:

  • A deeper understanding of how children with ADHD experience and respond to the world around them
  • Greater awareness of how ADHD affects learning and socialisation
  • Practical strategies to inform and enhance support for pupils with ADHD in boarding schools
  • Fresh ideas and proven frameworks to guide inclusive, child-centred practice.”
