No Waitlist psychoeducational assessments in Cambridge

Accommodation vs. Modification

The two types of recommendations that can be made in psychoeducational reporting are recommendations for accommodation and/or recommendations for modification. ​

Accommodation:

Recommendations for accommodation can change how the curriculum is taught, accessed, and assessed. Simple examples of accommodations would be an extended amount of time to complete an assignment, allowing the student to use speech-to-text technology, and shortening assignments. The accommodations do not alter the curriculum or the course of what the student is expected to achieve and master.

Modification:

Recommendations for modification will change how the curriculum is taught, accessed, and assessed, but will also alter the course of what curriculum is being taught and what the student is expected to achieve and master. The simplest example of a modification is a curriculum from a lower grade being recommended or altering activities to reduce the complexity of the curriculum.
