Description

Does your child have trouble following the teacher’s rules? Are you getting a lot of calls from the principal?    An IEP, or Individualized Education Program, can do a lot of things to help with behavioral challenges in school.   But as you explore getting an IEP and putting it into action, things can get confusing. Along the way, you might run into wonky terms like FBA, BIP, and manifestation determination.   Those terms might all sound confusing now. But in this episode of Understood Explains, host Juliana Urtubey will help you understand what they mean and how they can help your child make progress in school.    For more resources, including a transcript formatted for easy skimming, visit the episode page on Understood.org.Timestamps(00:46) Does my child need behavioral support at school?(04:20) Can my child get an IEP for ADHD?(05:50) What is a functional behavioral assessment?(06:58) What is a behavior intervention plan?(08:50) Can schools discipline kids with IEPs?(10:33) Key takeawaysRelated resourcesWhat is PBIS?School discipline rights for kids with IEPs and 504 plansPodcast: Understood Explains Evaluations for Special EducationUnderstood.org is a nonprofit resource dedicated to shaping the world so the millions of people with learning and thinking differences can thrive.
