Abstract
The primary to high school student population in Jamaica has become more academically diverse, and schools are experiencing the pressures of implementing reform programs without adequate financial and professional development support. The schools facing the greatest challenges and needs in Jamaica are often those in the rural areas. Researchers applied the instructional consultation (IC) model to establish collaborative partnerships with educators in rural Jamaica for the purpose of sharing instructional experiences in literacy and mathematics. A definition of IC, the aspect of the model used, and a description of the project and outcomes are provided. Finally, lessons learned relating to the difficulties of staying true to the consultation process and future directions of this partnership are highlighted.
