In our last episode, we discussed the Present Levels of Academic Achievement and Functional Performance (PLAAFP), annual goals, and special education services. Today, we'll cover the remaining sections of the IEP, providing you with a complete understanding of this essential document.

We'll explore related services like speech-language therapy and occupational therapy, which support your child's educational goals. We'll also discuss supplementary aids, such as assistive technology and behavioral supports, ensuring children can participate fully in school activities. Additionally, we'll dive into the principle of Least Restrictive Environment (LRE) and the importance of inclusion with non-disabled peers.

Understanding these components is crucial for effective advocacy. Whether you're a parent, educator, or aspiring advocate, mastering the IEP helps ensure that children with special needs receive the support and services they deserve. Join us for practical insights, real-life examples, and actionable tips to help you navigate the special education system.
