For parents
Support that works at school, too.
When your child needs extra support at school, knowing where to start makes all the difference. ADHDme helps you prepare for the next conversation.
A diagnosis is one part of the picture.
The next step is understanding what helps your child learn, take part and feel supported at school.
Three steps
Notice what gets in the way
Focus, planning, transitions, classroom noise, tests or routines.
Prepare for the school conversation
Bring clear examples of what helps your child learn and take part.
Agree on support that fits
Work with the school on reasonable adjustments for your child’s needs.
Support looks different for every student.
Clearer instructions, movement breaks, flexible seating, a quieter room for tests, extra time, or help getting organised.
Start the conversation with confidence.
Our school meeting guide helps you organise what you’ve noticed, what has helped before, and the questions you want to ask.

Every student is different.
Schools, families and students work together to agree reasonable adjustments based on the student’s needs.
What is the NCCD?
The Nationally Consistent Collection of Data on School Students with Disability records students receiving adjustments at school. Your school can explain how this applies to your child and what information they need.
