Ontario schools are failing kids with ADHD

from This Matters · host Toronto Star

Guest: Katie Daubs, senior writer As Ontario's schools struggle with resources and ripple effects of the pandemic, experts say students with diverse needs like attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) aren't getting the help they require. ADHD is one of the most common neurodevelopmental disorders in children, yet there is no official ministry categorization making it difficult to support in classrooms. As part of the Star's "The Kids Aren't All Right" series, senior writer Katie Daubs talked to one high school student about her experience. This episode was produced by Paolo Marques and Brian Bradley.
