Who decides what special education services my child requires?
CategoriesDepartment |
The IEP team determines what special education services are most appropriate for your child. The parent is a required participant on this team. No decision regarding identification, evaluation, educational placement or any other issues related to providing a free, appropriate public education for your child should be made without your input. Other required members of the IEP team are a special education teacher, a regular education teacher and a representative of the LEA (local education authority or school district).
