About the H.I.S. project

Making sure your kids are #happyinschool is every parent’s dream. It’s tough if they don’t seem happy, especially if they come home anxious, angry or upset. If you suspect your child has as an undiagnosed neurodiverse condition such as dyslexia, autism or ADHD or if they stress in the evening or in the morning about going to school, you’ve come to the right place. The #happyinschoolproject provides compassionate, evidence-based training, education and support for parents and educators, every step of the way.

#happyinschool is the the way forward! Our parent & educator sessions  Who’s the Adult in the classroom? The Parent Teacher Conundrum, Autism & ADHD Together, Classroom Politics, Cracking the Friendship Code, ‘Getting the Best from NeuroDiververgent Kids’ are uplifting and transformational.  If you need deeper insight into these neurological conditions, whilst learning techniques to successfully implement change in the educational setting and at home, sign up for FREE downloads below.

About the founder - Suzy Rowland

I’m Suzy Rowland, Autism & ADHD Specialist, cognitive behavioural therapist and Founder of the #happyinschool project. My son was diagnosed with autism and ADHD aged nine, after several exclusions from primary and secondary school. 

The #happyinschool project has quickly become a vibrant forum for autism & ADHD parent advocacy, through a series of detailed training programmes for parents, mental health professionals and educators. The sessions are community-based and include elements of mindfulness and reflection, which participants can use after the sessions.

“Any parent would be happy to have this workshop to give them a little knowledge and guidance and as R said, I too feel more empowered especially ahead of the initial EHCP discussion” 

“The sessions are great and engaging”

“The graphics and clear, the sessions move at a great pace (no waffle).

“Thanks again for the course. It was very empowering,” Mr. R Surrey

“I really enjoyed the role play, it was interesting discussing different approaches of parents and teachers…”

“I enjoyed talking about ADHD, I didn’t know much about that.”
