ADHD Senco Training Graphic. 'Train your school on ADHD'

Enhancing ADHD awareness in schools

Information about the course

WHY TAKE THE COURSE?

Special Education Needs Co-ordinators (SENCOs) play a key role in the development of SEN policy and code of practise in schools, and it is crucial that they are knowledgeable in all aspects of SEN.
We have created a new ‘train the trainer’ method to educate whole schools about Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD).

BENEFITS OF TAKING THE ADHD AWARENESS COURSE:

  • Hear the latest evidenced-based research from local leading academic experts in the field, with years of personal lived and professional experience.
  • Comprehensive overview of ADHD to enhance your awareness and understanding
  • Learn the science of ADHD, understand how to identity it and occurs in the classroom
  • Understand your local care pathway in Nottingham and how to refer students to medical professionals
  • Use your new knowledge to train all the teachers in your school on ADHD

COURSE DETAILS:

  • £120 in-person workshop at the Institute of Mental Health, run by academic professionals and lived experience course facilitators, followed by a networking lunch
  • Workbook homework and resources to train other teachers after the course

 

Want us to come to you?

If you are looking to book 12+ places for attendees in the same organisation, we can come to you! Contact us to discuss a personalised training session hosted at your organisation. Prices and final details determined upon agreement.
