The survey aims to highlight and describe how the schools' teaching strategies look like in the work of pupils from the neuropsychiatric disability AD/HD (Attention Deficit / Hyperactivity Disorder). The pedagogical strategies have been investigated in an integrated and segregated teaching method. The study is qualitative in nature where the interviews conducted, first with a student who has been diagnosed AD/HD but also with teachers from each school who is well versed in student teaching and work. The results of the study show that knowledge and commitment about AD/HD is crucial to students' role and function in school. If knowledge and commitment is sufficient for the student teaching tailored to student needs and the risk of misunderstandings occur decreases. Security is a key factor for students who have been diagnosed AD/HD and learning form in itself is no guarantee that students will feel safe. Students have in the two teaching methods stressed that they feel safe at school and with their education and therefore has no teaching method preferred. It's more about building relationships, which in turn is essential for the students to embrace the teaching strategies at all. Building relationships with students also need their pedagogical strategies. They are determined in turn by the patience, time, reliability and solid understanding. The conclusion of the investigation, regardless of the type of instruction form the pupil is given, is that knowledge and the willingness of school personnel to understand the neuro-psychiatric disability AD/HD is necessary for the pupil needs to be able to satisfy.
