Introduction

Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is a neurodevelopmental condition that affects a young person's ability to focus, regulate impulses and manage activity levels. While many children can appear distracted or energetic at times, ADHD involves ongoing patterns of inattention, impulsivity and/or hyperactivity that can impact learning, behaviour and relationships. These challenges may show up as difficulty staying on task, forgetfulness, emotional frustration or acting before thinking. ADHD is increasingly recognised, yet it is often misunderstood, with behaviours sometimes mistaken for defiance or lack of effort. With the right understanding and support, however, young people with ADHD can thrive. Parents and carers play an important role by recognising early signs, maintaining open communication and working alongside schools and health professionals to help children develop practical skills, confidence and strategies that support their wellbeing and success.
