Before the passing of this act children who were severely disabled were not able to receive a quality education. The education that they received was in complete isolation of other students. These new sets of laws required schools to develop programs that would assist the educational needs of these students. Individualized Education Plans or I.E.P.s were created to help assist students and teachers in obtaining state and federal academic requirements. The I.E.P. needs to be clear and concise so the teachers and students can understand the effectiveness of the document. Not only were schools required to assist special needs students, but federal funding was increased to help make sure schools have the necessary resources to help these students. The act also opened up the doors to parents of these students. It allowed the decision making of parents to be fairer and focused on the best solution for the child. Since the implementation of EAHCA and later IDEA children with disabilities are achieving at higher levels that would have never been thought of in past decades. IDEA has been changed since 1975 but the bottom line of the act is the fair treatment for all students in…
From watching the films on IEP, I was first able to identify what an IEP was. I’ve discovered that an IEP is a document that is developed for each public school child who needs special education. My thoughts about the information provided in the films helps better understand their child’s process in school with their education. The information in my thoughts is very useful and effective for both the parent and the child. This is also useful because it provides knowledge and understanding to those who aren’t aware of IEP’s and lack certain knowledge to this subject.…
An IEP is an individualized education program, it is defined as “a plan with specific goals developed jointly by the special educator, medical and therapy personnel and the family” (Early,p 509). Achieve Therapy Services is a private organization, they are not contracted by the Brevard County School District, therefore are not required to follow the goals of the IEP made for the child are school. However, these goal of the IEP are taken into consideration when the goals are set by the OTR treating each child. The children that I observed the COTA working with struggle with sensory functions which include visual, hearing, vestibular, touch and proprioceptive functions(OTPF, s23), forming letters correctly (top-down approach), visual motor including tracking/ scanning and fine motor deficits.…
IEP is developed by a group of school staffs as wells as the child's parent. The team meets and evaluates the child with various assessments as well as designs an educational program to help the child learn better in a educational environment depending on his or her disability. “There are strict legal requirements about who participates. An IEP is created by an IEP team that must include, the child’s parent, at least one special education teacher. School psychologist or other specialist who can interpret evaluation results”. A district representative with authority over special education services”.(2011 what is the difference between IFSP and an IEP?) When the school decides they want to change the learning program for a child they have to contact a parent. They have to tell parents in writing before they change the learning plan. This is called “prior written notice”. Notice is a requirement of IEP terms and conditions. Parents also have “stay put” rights to keep services in place while there's a…
