Overview

Behaviour issues in general, and ADHD in particular, is always a high priority in schools. Teachers are constantly searching for practical guidance on how to manage learners who find it difficult to concentrate and stay on task for any length of time, sometimes presenting challenging behaviour in the classroom and disrupting learning for other students. The book will be a user-friendly resource for busy senior teachers, enabling them to offer practical and effective strategies and models of good practice to practitioners, and signposting further sources of information. Each chapter will end with a summary page/handout that can be used with colleagues in a Continuing Professional Development context. Written by one of the UK's leading experts on the topic, SENCOs, behaviour management staff and senior leaders will find invaluable, practical and up-to-date information and advice on ADHD and can use the additional resources as a continuing professional development tool to use with colleagues in all phases.
