ADHD
Welcome to the No. 1 media on ADHD
Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) affects around 5% of children.
It shows itself through difficulties with sustaining attention, managing impulsivity and regulating energy levels.
How to recognise it ADHD?
Contrary to popular belief, a child with ADHD is not “misbehaving by choice”. They simply have a different attentional functioning, requiring a structured and caring environment. For them, staying focused, following instructions or finishing a task requires considerable energy, often followed by mental fatigue and a drop in confidence. With organisational strategies, active breaks and suitable digital tools, it is possible to better channel attention, enhance their strengths and promote academic success.
- The child is easily distracted, forgets their belongings and often gets out of their seat.
- They interrupt others or act without thinking.
- They struggle to concentrate on lengthy instructions.
The main warning signs
Lack of concentration or constant restlessness
Impulsivity and difficulty waiting their turn
Difficulties with organisation
Physical or verbal hyperactivity
Performance that varies depending on the context
An assessment by a neuropsychologist or a specialist psychologist helps confirm the diagnosis and tailor educational support.
