A few of our frequently asked questions about this course
ADHD is often missed in schools because many students do not display the stereotypical behaviours that people commonly associate with the condition. Some children, particularly girls and high-achieving pupils, may appear quiet, compliant, or academically capable while struggling internally with attention, organisation, and emotional regulation. Others may mask their difficulties through extra effort. In many cases, ADHD is misunderstood as poor behaviour, lack of motivation, or immaturity rather than a neurodevelopmental difference. This course helps educators recognise these less obvious presentations and understand why early identification is frequently delayed.
In this course, you will gain a clear and practical understanding of how ADHD affects learning, behaviour, emotions, and self-esteem in school settings. You will learn how ADHD presents in different students, including inattentive, hyperactive, and combined profiles, and how these may change over time. The training covers executive functioning, emotional regulation, classroom adjustments, and inclusive teaching approaches. You will also develop confidence in communicating with families, documenting concerns, and supporting students before and after diagnosis. All learning is designed to translate directly into everyday classroom practice.
The training is delivered by experienced teachers and leading ADHD clinicians who have extensive expertise in both education and clinical practice. This combined perspective ensures that the course is grounded in real classroom challenges while remaining aligned with current medical and psychological research. Participants benefit from practical insights, real-world case studies, and evidence-based guidance that reflects the realities of modern school environments.
The ADHD awareness course is delivered as a structured live webinar that includes interactive teaching, case discussions, and opportunities for questions. The exact duration may vary depending on the format and whether the training is delivered to individual participants or whole schools. Extended and bespoke sessions are also available for organisations requiring more in-depth training.
Yes, this course is available for whole-school, multi-academy trust, and local authority delivery. Group training can be tailored to reflect your school’s specific needs, policies, and challenges. Bespoke packages are available for leadership teams, SEN departments, and pastoral services, ensuring consistent understanding and practice across staff.
Yes, the course provides clear guidance on when and how to raise concerns about possible ADHD, how to document classroom observations effectively, and how to communicate sensitively with families. You will learn about referral pathways, the role of external professionals, and how to support students while assessments are ongoing. The training also explains how to continue supporting learners after diagnosis, ensuring continuity of care and educational support.
The course and training has been valuable in informing me with knowledge about ADHD and further skills in providing ADHD assessment. Also left me wanting to further my knowledge. Thank you.
I enjoyed the course and felt I recieved adequate training to complete ADHD assessments.
Coming from a pharmacy background I didn't find this course challenging, however I still found it beneficial particularly the case studies. There was a video of a patient which I found quite difficult to follow perhaps because I was flagging and it was just before lunch. I would recommend this course to all clinicians.
Great course - thank you.
Great Course , able to follow training well . Good flow of teaching . enjoyed it and learnt a lot

Fantastic
confident in ADHD assessment following training
excellent course, The trainer was incredibly informative and I highly recommend taking this training to further professional development.
I thoroughly enjoyed the interactive course, it made a difference especially learning from a professional who's not just talking the talk but also has walked the walk. The group case study was most helpful. It's worth been worth it. I'd recommend it to everyone health, social care and educational practitioner.
interactive, informative
This course was very educative. I have an interview coming up as a prescriber for ADHD, I am more confident now after attending this course
I attended the Diagnostic ADHD Course, and it exceeded my expectations. The instructor presented diagnostic concepts with clarity and compassion, balancing theoretical guidelines with practical application. I gained a solid understanding of assessment frameworks, common presentations across age groups, and how to translate findings into actionable support plans. This course is a valuable resource for students, professionals, and individuals seeking a nuanced, evidence-based understanding of ADHD.
This was an excellent course, comprehensive structure with access to multiple resources. Explored in depth the use of the DIVA-5, helpful tips on implementing this diagnostic tool. The trainer is a passionate clinician and fostered interesting and thought provoking discussions in the group.
Great session, would definitely recommend
I benefited so much from the two courses completed with Private ADHD. Both have been brilliant at equipping me with a robust and detailed knowledge base on the diagnostic criteria, process of assessment and qualifications to be able to assess ADHD (in addition to Autism and Dyslexia) within an MDT - and with detailed insight into medication and management of ADHD, essential to the services I provide as a Neuroaffirming Consultant and Mentor: pre and post diagnostic support to individuals of all ages, and to families and schools.
I took part in the management of ADHD course. The learning provided me with a lot of knowledge on the different medications that are used to help manage symptoms of ADHD. the case studies allowed us to put this learning into practice which was really useful. Overall was a great course that has improved my knowledge on ADHD.

This training was incredibly insightful and deepened my understanding of ADHD and equipped me with practical strategies I can apply both professional and personally.

Great
Truly grateful for this course. It has been extremely beneficial and informative. I had concerns that it would be treated like a check box exercise but The trainer demonstrated so much time, care and passion. I am currently working within a prison setting, where I will be conducting my DIVA-5 assessments but I will certainly be looking for a full time role in ADHD assessing.
The trainer conducted a comprehensive and engaging DIVA training session, significantly deepening my understanding of ADHD through interactive discussions with fellow mental health professionals.
The course was very insightful
Fantastic course with wonderful learning. I am looking forward to pursuing a further career in this area asap!
The course covered the scope of what I wanted to learn and much more, participation in the course inspired me to look into non medical prescribing. I would definitely recommend this diagnostic course to anyone interested in extending their ADHD knowledge base and I look forward to participating in the upcoming management course.
The course was well-structured, walking me through each stage of the diagnostic process in a way that felt empowering rather than clinical. The course was thoughtfully structured, with each step building insight, clarity, and confidence. I thoroughly enjoyed the course-Thank you!
The information about employment and how to use this knowledge in practice would have been helpful, clear outline of the pathway
Great course, very detailed and inspiring
