ADHD

ADHD, or Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, is something that affects how some students focus, stay organised, and manage their energy. Everyone with ADHD is different—some might find it hard to sit still, while others may get distracted easily—but they also tend to be creative, energetic, and full of great ideas. At our school, we understand that learning isn’t one-size-fits-all. We’re here to support students with ADHD by helping them discover what works best for them and celebrating the unique strengths they bring to our school community.

It’s perfectly normal for children to be active, forget things, or have trouble paying attention from time to time—these are all part of growing up. However, for a child with ADHD, these behaviors happen more frequently and can significantly impact their daily life at home and school. The key difference is that ADHD is not a matter of choice or discipline; it’s a neurodevelopmental condition that affects how the brain manages attention, organisation, and self-control. Recognising this helps parents and teachers provide understanding, structure, and support, rather than viewing the child’s behaviour as willful or lazy.
