Course Outline

This presentation will demystify the term ADHD and co-existing conditions in terms of learning, behaviour and socialisation issues.

Training topics will include:

  • The neuroscience of ADHD
  • Developmental differences of ADHD
  • Introduction to the SF3R approach – structure, flexibility, rapport, relationships and resilience.

Learning outcomes:

All attendees will develop a much greater understanding and awareness of how children with ADHD relate to the world around them in learning and social settings.
