Systems competencies in the CFRP framework include advocating for appropriate accommodations in educational settings to support children with specific needs. For an 8-year-old with executive functioning deficits, which impact skills like organization, focus, and self-regulation, a reasonable accommodation is providing a quiet room for taking tests to minimize distractions and support concentration. The CFRP study guide states, “Reasonable accommodations for children with executive functioning deficits include providing a quiet, distraction-free environment for tests to enhance focus and performance.” Permitting naps (option A) is unrelated to executive functioning. Allowing opting out of tests (option C) undermines academic progress, and scheduling counseling (option D) is a service, not an accommodation.
CFRP Study Guide (Section on Systems Competencies): “For children with executive functioning deficits, reasonable accommodations such as a quiet room for test-taking help address challenges with focus and organization.”
