annie Report post Posted February 9, 2006 Hi Hev (oh awarded one ), This is from the 'jargon buster' Individual Education Plan (IEP): the IEP is a planning, teaching and reviewing tool. It is a working document for all teaching staff recording key short-term targets and strategies for an individual pupil that are different from or additional to those in place for the rest of the group or class. The interventions will be provided under Early Years Action, Early Years Action Plus, School Action, School Action Plus and statements of SEN.

clintess Report post Posted February 9, 2006 my ds has an iep its a sheet of paper which states what phase your child is on:school action,school action plus(my ds) then it goes statement. then you have a list normally three of targets: my ds is counting to 20 learning certain letters of the alphabet (on his is five letters) then thelast one is peoples emotions and the impact of his actions on them. then they list the resources they are using to achieve these targets.ie whitboard,flashcards etc then the list of achiements. then it is signed by both class teacher and senco it also has the date in which it will be reviewed. with my ds he also has a speech/language plan running along side. hope this helps you.you will only need an iep if your child has learning diffculties but i would inquire if your child needs one.

helenl53 Report post Posted February 9, 2006 No Phas - if it was the school where Darkys kids and my son went to - then the question would be valid The SENCO does not believe in them and prefers one to one verbal communication. That will be herself talking to her alter ego Best wishes HelenL Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DaisyProudfoot Report post Posted February 9, 2006 That reminds me - I'm seeing SENCO on Monday must remember to mention IEP as it was meant to be reviewed last November! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Flora Report post Posted February 9, 2006 Daisy, at least you have an IEP to review!!! After 2 years at this school my son has had one IEP, hastely scribbled out for my signature 2 days before the OFSTED visit in July 2004. I was a bit green then, otherwise I would have refused to sign it. Lauren Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
