Remediation is NOT dependent on diagnosis.
Rather, it is dependent on "academic and functional skills"-- if the child does not have the skills to function well within the school context (includes things like zipping coat as well as things like reading) the school should be working to build those skills.
The testing process should culminate in a meeting where the team assesses the academic and functional needs, looking at strengths and weaknesses. It is important that the document that comes out of that meeting make clear exactly what is not working, including EF issues. Make sure every problem is documented, preferably with data and work samples. (Quotes from teacher email can also be useful here.)
Then the next step is to determine what services or supports are needed, based on the list of needs. It is the needs, NOT the diagnosis, that determines the services/supports.
