The theoretical part of this bachelor's dissertation is focused on the development of the term ADHD and appropriate terminology. It proceeds from minimal brain dysfunction to actual term of ADHD. The chapter contains the etiology of ADHD, occurence of this disorder, clasification and distinction of ADHD in accordance with the symptoms. In the theoretical part there is a chapter about different manifestations of ADHD and ADD. There is elaborated chapter about the problems of the ADHD child in the lower level of primary school. In the following chapter, there is definition of younger school age and possible problems developing by the ADHD child. There are legal rules relating to the education of ADHD pupils. Another chapter is focused on appropriate educative methods, that are applied during the education of children diagnosed with ADHD, because the right methods of work are pivotal for them. The right form of education for ADHD pupils is provided by the schools in cooperation with educational and psychological counselling offices. Those are very important for solving the educational disorders of ADHD children. They can set up individual educational plan with specific enumeration of appropriate actions for the child. The counselling offices can also recommend the assistent of the pedagogue, who can help the ADHD child and also the whole class. Is is necessary for all of the actors to cooperate to manage the child with ADHD. Multidisciplinary approach is mentioned in the last chapter of the theoretical part of this bachelor's dissertation. If the work with ADHD child is supposed to be effective, it is important for the teacher, family, child and experts to create a union and cooperate. In accordance to the theme of the paper, the qualitative type of research, more specificaly the technique of semistuctured interviews with the respondents, was used in the practical part. Those were realised with the teachers and educational consultants working in two primary schools, special pedagogues and psychologists working in educational and psychological counselling offices. In the research part of the paper, the process and results of the qualitative research is captured. The aim of the paper was to gain the opinions of teachers, educational consultants, special pedagogues and psychologists specialized on the problems of education of pupils with ADHD.

The aims are transformed into the form of questions for the semistructured interview. The research results are backed by the information coming from the interviews with the experts mentioned earlier. The most important outcome of the research is the finding that the role of the assistent of pedagogue is helpful only in the tougher forms of this diagnosis and just on the lower level of primary education. The experts claimed that it is crucial to differentiate bad behaviour from ADHD syndrome. The cooperation of family and school is considered to be very important. The teachers and consultants cowork especially with the family and also with educational and psychological counselling offices, if necessary. Experts apply relaxing and calming methods the most.
