Module 3 - Understand ADHD in the EY Classroom

Learn how to support children with ADHD in Early Years classrooms using proactive, inclusive strategies that improve engagement, behaviour, and learning outcomes.

This module is designed for teachers, teaching assistants, early years practitioners, and support staff who want to build confidence in supporting children with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) in Early Years settings.

It is aligned with expectations from ADEK, SPEA, the Ministry of Education (MoE), and KHDA, ensuring that educators working in UAE nurseries and schools follow recognised standards for inclusion, child development, and behaviour support.

In this module, teachers will explore how ADHD affects attention, impulsivity, activity levels, and social interaction. Learners will focus on practical, evidence‑based strategies they can apply immediately in the classroom, including structured routines, movement breaks, strength‑based approaches, and positive behaviour reinforcement.

The module equips educators to promote self‑regulation, reduce classroom disruption, and support all children’s success while fostering inclusive, supportive learning environments.
