What challenges a child with ADHD has in school?
Since students with ADHD are often in trouble, they are unable to deal with criticism and can become defiant and hostile. This can damage their whole attitude to school and to learning, and they may ultimately give up on education. It's very important to show that education has not given up on them. https://www.adhdfoundation.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/Teaching-and-Managing-Students_FINAL.pdf
