According to the latest statistics, it's likely there's at least one child in every class who's affected by Oppositional Defiant Disorder. But what does it actually mean if a child has a diagnosis of ODD?
In this episode of School Behaviour Secrets, we take a deep dive into understanding ODD in the classroom. We look at how Oppositional Defiant Disorder affects pupils, what kinds of behaviours we might see in the classroom, and share strategies for supporting pupils with the condition.
