What is ADHD?
Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is a brain-based condition affecting how people focus, manage impulses, and regulate their activity levels. It can cause challenges with attention, organisation, and self-control. Once thought to affect only children, ADHD is now recognised as a lifelong condition. Most people continue to experience symptoms into adulthood, and adult-onset ADHD is also medically recognised.

Innovative ADHD Help: Turning Challenges Into Strengths
Racing thoughts, brain-fog, attention being pushed and pulled in all directions, no matter how hard you try to wrestle with it? For those of us with ADHD (attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder), these experiences can be a daily reality.

Understanding SEN: A Key to Effective Support
Special educational needs (SEN) or special educational needs and disabilities (SEND) refer to additional learning requirements some students have. These may involve differences in communication, coordination, attention, behaviour or social interaction. These characteristics can affect how a student learns in a typical classroom and typically require additional support. At Sunbeam Education, we specialise in providing one-to-one tutoring and coaching support for students with SEN. This support ranges from subject support to help with developing sustainable support strategies for challenges associated with SEN, such as organisation and anxiety. Here is our primer on all things SEN - what it means, how students are impacted and what can be done to support them.

Why Do Students With ADHD Struggle With Time Management?
Time management can be particularly challenging for students with ADHD because it involves executive functions - the mental skills we use to plan, organise, prioritise tasks, and follow through on them. Executive functions allow us to anticipate future outcomes, make informed decisions, and take necessary actions to achieve long-term goals.
