What do others think of us?
Feedback
from ADHD'ers, family members, teachers, LSA and others who attend our
meetings are always very positive. Here are just some of the messages
of feedback from prior events:
We also wanted to share this feedback we had earlier this year:
"A number of our teaching staff attended and we were all
very appreciative of your honesty and also highly impressed by what you have
achieved. The impact it has had on the staff was so great, management have recognised that ALL the staff need training to
recognise the difficulties and implement strategies into their classroom in
order to provide equal educational opportunities to vulnerable learners."
