- ADHD - Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder
- ADHD is a biological disorder but environmental factors are also likely to play a part in the child's behaviour
- Seat the pupil close to the teacher - "proximity control"
- Use the pupil's name
- Selectively ignore minor inappropriate behaviour
- Acknowledge positive behaviour
- When reprimanding - focus on behaviour you want
- Criticise the behaviour not the child
- Explain unacceptable behaviour privately
- Keep oral instructions brief
- Break tasks into small steps
- Help the child organise him/herself - making lists; writing down homework; planning project work
- Focus on content, not untidiness or errors
- Praise and encourage progress
