Abstract: This paper is conceptual in design and focuses on exploring and developing theoretical concepts to create a framework for enhancing Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder management from a school and familial approach. The overarching objective is to improve awareness and understanding among school teachers and family members on how they perceive children with ADHD, how to manage ADHD in school and at home, and optimize their learning potential. The paper provides approaches to assess ADHD and examines how teachers and family members can optimize children with ADHD with an enabling environment for learning. Writing this paper implicated a comprehensive and systematic review and analysis of literature using not less than ten current reputable peer-reviewed journal papers and websites, including those published in the Journal of Abnormal Child Psychology, Journal of Clinical Psychopharmacology, Behavior Modification, Global Mental Health, Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry, Journal of School Psychology, and American Journal of Psychiatry. The resources were analyzed for themes and strategies relevant to ADHD management. This research paper is a valuable resource for parents, teachers, and healthcare professionals in identifying and supporting children with ADHD.
