The Diagnostic Report provides an individual skills assessment and other diagnostic information for each of the students you have selected. This report helps teachers determine how to improve their students' performance. It also supports a direct discussion with an individual student's parents or guardians.
Students with IEPs usually join regular education classes for special subject areas such as science, social studies, art, music, library, gym, and health. It is critical for regular classroom teachers to read students' IEPs and be familiar with the services and monitoring that are required in the plan.
The plan will include your child's classification, placement, services such as a one-on-one aide and therapies, academic and behavioral goals, a behavior plan if needed, percentage of time in regular education, and progress reports from teachers and therapists. 1  The IEP is planned at an IEP meeting. The individualized part of IEP means that the plan has to be tailored specifically to your child's special needs -- not to the needs of the teacher, or the school, or the district.
