I do not know in South Africa, what options you have, but at Wrightslaw.com there is info on accomodations for school that you and a teacher can implement:

Lots of info:

If your son has a teacher that can work with you, you shouldn't need a
special school. But you may need to figure out medication, which can make
it possible to function in a regular classroom setting.
For my grandson, success in school requires that his teacher gives him more
structure. And she keeps in very close contact with me which is a great way
to keep track of behavior.
I would suggest that your first step is to see a psychiatrist or pediatric
neurologist to get him evaluated for medication.

 

Please please any info will do. I have no clue in what to do
