Academic rehabilitation plans should be revised on an ongoing basis and instruction should be modified to ensure that it adjusts to changing circumstances, and that it addresses the individual learning style and response to instruction of students with ABI. Students with ABI respond to instruction in ways that can not be fully predicted through testing alone. Systematic teaching routinely points to additional skills that need to be addressed explicitly through instruction.

For cases where we are the sole provider of academic rehabilitation services, case managers review teaching-progress data and consult with our teachers to monitor the instructional programming for students with ABI on an ongoing basis. We have available a wealth of educational resources and we implement changes to the instructional plan promptly when needed.

Often, there are geographical impediments to providing specialized services for students with ABI. Students who reside in remote communities are hard to reach; appropriate service providers in their area are often far and few between. Although teachers can be trained to administer specialized programming, the course of this programming as well as questions relating to its implementation need to be addressed by education specialists. A team approach is often the only way to provide academic rehabilitation; the effective coordination of the team and the programs that it implements is paramount to efficient, effective and comprehensive rehabilitation. Our coordination services include:

• Monitoring and reviewing teacher-collected data on a monthly basis;
• Supervising the implementation of treatment plans bimonthly;
• Providing telephone consultation for teachers and tutors;
• Coordinating individualized instruction with classroom expectations where possible;
• Deciding on specific programs and resources that will be used for instruction.

Effective academic rehabilitation depends upon the ability to teach the most appropriate program, in the most appropriate manner, at the most appropriate time. Angus Lloyd Associates has extensive educational resources and programs to address specific academic and organizational skills. We have structured our service model to ensure that our resources and expertise are readily available to teachers and tutors that administer academic rehabilitation programs under our supervision.
