Techniques for helping children with ADHD and minimising classroom disruption are explored in All About ADHD, an information booklet from the Mental Health Foundation. It is aimed at teachers, parents and professionals. Suggestions include rearranging the classroom so that the disruptive child is sitting near to them and away from distractions such as windows, and giving pupils with ADHD special responsibilities so other children see them in a positive light.
