SUMMARY
When it comes to getting school support for kids with ADHD, many parents are confused: Should my child with ADHD be on a 504 Plan? IEP? Can I have both? What should I even ask for? And WHY are there so many acronyms?? Don't worry, we've got you! In this episode, we talk through the key differences between these two plans, and how to understand what your child needs. With the right support, we know your child can shine at school.
