to Support Students with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD)

Collaborative Services Delivery Model (CSDM) for Students with Autism Spectrum Disorder Phase 2 Report of
THE PROVINCIAL ADVISORY TEAM (PAT)

1 Introduction Approaches to Effective Collaboration

The Provincial Advisory Team (PAT) has identified the following Considerations that may require particular focus by school boards and partnerships implementing the Connections for Students model. Each consideration categorizes a summary of experiences that occurred during the implementation of the Collaborative Service Delivery Model (CSDM) for Students with Autism Spectrum Disorder Phase 2, and include potential recommended solutions provided by the PAT that may be helpful to school boards and AIP providers in the ongoing implementation of Connections for Students.

It is understood that each partnership has their own unique circumstances; therefore considerations identified are not a definitive list that school board and AIP partnerships may encounter during the provincial implementation of Connections for Students, nor do they reflect the realities of all partnership conditions. This provides an opportunity for the sharing of effective practices and approaches which PAT members have found to be useful when planning and implementing the Connections for Students model.
