Understanding ADHD
Evidence-based strategies for parents of children with ADHD
How the ADHD brain actually works. Reframe behaviour as biology and respond with the right tools instead of consequences.
ADHD affects approximately 5% of school-age children in the UK, yet the gap between diagnosis and effective parental support remains vast. This course equips parents with a deep understanding of how ADHD presents across genders and developmental stages, why traditional parenting strategies often backfire, and what evidence-based approaches actually work. Drawing on executive function research, behaviour science, and the lived experience of ADHD families, parents leave with practical tools they can implement immediately — at home, in school, and in the wider world.
