  3. An IEP is…. • A relevant working document that outlines the special education programs and services to be provided to the student. • A plan for a student’s progress through the Ontario curriculum and/or alternative programs or courses. • Based on assessment and student areas of strength and need. • Linked to the Provincial Report Card and/or alternative report card. • Reflective of parent and student consultation.

  4. Reasons for an IEP • Required to outline the special education programs and services provided for students identified as exceptional by an Identification Placement Review Committee (IPRC) • Not mandatory, but recommended, to outline the special education programs and services provided for non-identified students having special education needs • Documents EQAO accommodations that are consistent with classroom practice

  5. Special Education Programs and Services Special education programs: primarily consist of instruction and assessments that are different from those provided to the general student population. Special education services: typically refer to supports such as assistance with instructional programming, personal care and behavioural management, and may involve additional human supports such as teachers’ assistants.

  6. Overview of the IEP Process

  7. Where should I look for information? Who should I consult with? What do I do with the information? What types of further assessments can I do?

  8. Where do I get the information on strengths and needs ? Where do I record it? Who should be part of the IEP team? What are the roles and responsibilities for members of the team?

  9. How do I determine modifications? What are alternative programs? Where do I record them? How do I determine accommodations? Where do I record them? Are they for all subjects or courses? Accommodations Where do I get information on teaching strategies and assessment methods? When do I develop a transition plan? Transition Plans How do I know if human resources are needed? Human Resources Provincial Assessments How do I determine Provincial Assessment accommodations? How will I evaluate and report on the IEP?What should parent/student consultation look like? How often do I record information about parent/student consultation?

  10. Who do I share the IEP with? How do I report or share this with the parent? What if the student is not meeting the goals? When do I assess the student? How do I evaluate the IEP goals What does the IEP look like in practice?

  11. When should the IEP team update the learning expectations? Can changes to the IEP be made during the semester/term? What does transition planning look like? Where is the IEP stored? When should the IEP be reviewed?
