| Abstract | The move towards inclusive education in the UK (DfEE 1997; DfEE 2004a), and more recently integrated working (DfES 2003), has result ed in the development of a national framework calling for a change to the way organizat ions meet the needs of children. The Children Act (DfEE 2004b) provides the legal framework to legislate for these changes at national and local levels, and local service provid ers are required to work in partnership to provide a coordinated and coherent system of support aligned to the child’s evolving needs. This paper reports on empirical findings taken from interviews with children with ADHD, their teachers and parents, to highlight what they perceive to be effective in providing support for the children in their learning environm ent. Examples are drawn from environmental, personal, organizational and structu ral factors that are believed to influence the children’s behaviour. Suggestions are made over areas that need to be considered when setting up integrated services and how these can in fluence effective support for children. |
