Joint Committee On Health

Services and Supports for People with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder: Discussion

Mr. Ken Kilbride:

To quote what the Deputy said, they are "starting to", but any teacher who left college within the past five years did not receive training on this. We do lots of training for teachers. I always ask them, when they trained for four years to be a teacher, how much training they got to support that one child with ADHD who will always be in the classroom. The honest answer is zero to 30 minutes.
