School Children
Live life in integrity with who you really are.
We help children with ADHD understand their unique brain wiring, lean into their strengths and enable them to cope with their challenges so that they can reach their potential.
Children with ADHD experience many challenges in school and at home, including:
- Boredom and understimulation
- Difficulty with executive function skills like:
- Maintaining and regulating their attention
- Finishing what they've started
- Making decisions
- Organisation
- Planning and prioritising
- Remembering things
- Controlling impulsive behaviours
- Emotional dysregulation and sensitivity to rejection, resulting in:
- People pleasing
- Avoidance
- Aggression
It is crucial that children with ADHD receive the support they need to understand and manage their ADHD challenges. If an individual's ADHD goes unmanaged it can have serious implications for their wellbeing. However, ADHD also comes this a set of unique strengths such as creativity, problem-solving and deep passion. If properly supported, children with ADHD can not just survive but flourish in ways their neurotypical peers may never do.

One-to-One ADHD Coaching
The ADHD Advocate has designed a coaching programme for school children aged 8-11 with ADHD to help them:
1. Understand that ADHD isn’t a flaw or something to be ashamed of and that with the right knowledge and support, having ADHD can be a source of strength.
2. Gain the tools and self-awareness to better manage the everyday challenges of ADHD, from impulse control and mood swings to disorganisation and distractability so that they can more confidently navigate school and home life with ADHD.
