Since we began the podcast, ADHD has been mentioned throughout. So it only felt right to spend a whole episode talking about it!

Izzy is joined by Lynn McCann, who takes us through some strategies that SEND practitioners can use to help students in the classroom with ADHD. Including:

1. Sensory and movement breaks
2. Scaffolding executive functioning 
3. Self esteem and wellbeing
