Some pupils with ADHD accumulate sanctions up to exclusion from lessons, or even from the school. These situations are painful and can jeopardise schooling. Here is how to prevent them and how to respond. Acting early often helps prevent the situation from getting worse.
Restlessness, impulsivity and conflicts can lead to repeated sanctions, especially when ADHD is not known or not taken into account by the school. Each exclusion weighs on schooling and confidence.
The article ADHD and punishments at school looks at this question in detail.
