Site Links Home Search for ERIC Digests Privacy Policy Resources for Library Instruction ... Information Literacy Blog Designing Individualized Education Program (IEP) Transition Plans. ERIC Digest. by deFur, Sharon The 1997 amendments to the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) emphasized that students with disabilities are to be prepared for employment and independent living and that specific attention is to be paid to the secondary education they receive. The law also requires coordinated and documented planning. Early and meaningful transition planning, which actively involves students and their families, has a positive influence on students' post-school success and independence. This digest describes the process of designing quality IEP transition plans. TAKING AN EARLY, LONG-RANGE APPROACH Generally, an IEP addresses services to be provided to the student during one school year. But when it comes to transition requirements, the IEP team must think and plan several years ahead. The highest incidence of dropping out and of disciplinary actions such as suspension or expulsion occurs during the first two years of high school. To combat this pattern, IDEA requires that the IEP team carefully consider post-school goals when the student is about to enter high school at age 14. Beginning at age 16 (or younger, if appropriate) a statement of transition services needed by the student must be included in the IEP. High school experiences, both academic and social, greatly influence future options for all students. For adolescents with disabilities, these experiences are pivotal. Decisions about any transition service needs or a student's course of study should be grounded in the answers to the following questions:

Marshall - went to his IEP meeting but just sat there and didn't say anything, even though he really didn't agree with some of what was said. Frank - didn't attend his daughter's IEP meeting because, "I am sure the school knows what they are doing. They all have degrees in special ed and I don't." Kayla - knew she has a hard time speaking out so she brought Auntie April to her IEP meeting with her. April told the special education teacher that maybe her nieces were not going to college but that Kayla was and they had just better change those IEP goals that said she would take work study half the day and work in the cafeteria because did they know that Kayla hates washing dishes and her career goal sure did not include food service. Cindy - who met with her daughter's teacher before the IEP meeting to discuss what they thought Tamara's needs were. Cindy and the teacher then presented their ideas to the rest of the IEP team.

SLC Home GUARANTEE YOUR RIGHTS IN SPECIAL EDUCATION - Understand the Individual Education Plan !! Not every student who enters school is able to complete assignments and interact with peers without assistance. Nationwide, about 11% of students are served by special education, which is a program that provides children who have disabilities with individualized attention. For Native American students, the figures are much higher 15-20% are in special education. In the 2006 school year, 29% of children in the Spirit Lake schools were in special education, and 22% of those in high school. It is very likely that the lower percentage in secondary school is due to a high dropout rate for students with special needs. These children are dealing with obstacles imposed by mental, physical, or emotional limitations. Special education allows them to learn and receive the proper means to an education. By law, students who need special education receive testing and services free of charge, regardless of the family income. Welcome to the world of alphabet soup. From here on out, you will be hearing about IDEA, IEPs, ITPs, 504 plans, and probably a bunch of other new letters as well.

You receive: - Autism 101 - Effective IEP Strategies Name: Email: FIRST EVER PRESCHOOL IEP We had our son's IEP for preschool last October. First thing I did was get a copy of the Procedures and Rights from the State's Education homepage. Once I read that front to back, I had more of an idea how I should procede. In addition to their evaluation I paid for an independant evaluation. The psychologist made recommendations for my son. I pick a PhD that consulted in a neighboring school district. The National Research Council has a document that they presented to Congress regarding Teaching the Autisic child It addresses preschool needs. Good to read. Wrightslaw.com has some interesting documentation too. I went to the IEP meeting with tons of documentation. I hade everything in a folder clearly labeled. Remember if you do not agree with ANYTHING!!!! Do not sign the IEP!!!!!!!! In a kind manner state you do not agree and state what it is that you think your child needs. If you need to go to a formal hearing do it!! The private evaluation helps sooo much in this case. Also remember the school district has to provide an apporpiate education not necessarily the best education for the Autistic child. I find that if your child is mild to moderate on the Spectrum - public school can be adequate. My son is more servere on the Spectrum so I am doing a mix of public and private therapies.
