Supporting Students with ADHD - Supporting You to Support Students Insight Series
Duration1 Hour 30 mins
Team Professional Development
Neurodivergent students bring real strengths to university; creativity, deep focus, fresh ways of thinking. Yet too often they're navigating environments that weren't designed with them in mind. This interactive workshop explores how we can better support autistic and ADHD students (and those with other forms of neurodivergence) throughout their university journey. Together we'll consider: The barriers students face, from the dilemma of disclosure to the hidden cost of masking, and look at what genuinely helpful support looks like in practice. Reasonable adjustments that work, inclusive teaching approaches, and the small changes in awareness that make a big difference. Whether you're an academic, a support professional, or simply want to understand more, you'll leave with practical strategies and a clearer sense of how, in the right environment, different minds can do anything.
