Notes and observations
What is the IEP
An Individualized Education Plan (or programme) is also known as an IEP. This is a plan or programme developed to ensure that a child with an identified disability or learning disorder receives specialized instruction and related services.
The IEP, therefore, is the tool for inclusive teaching: a personalized plan that promotes the scholastic inclusion of students with difficulties in all phases of the educational programme - from nursery school to secondary school. The main objective of the IEP is to provide these pupils with learning and development support that takes into account their specific needs and abilities.
Furthermore, the IEP is a fundamental tool that connects schools and families, and any health professionals involved.
What is indicated in the IEP:
IEP and Erickson… in Italy
With law 104 of 1992, the IEP began to play a key role within the school world. But it is with the Ministerial Decree of 2020 and the related Guidelines that the single national IEP model was introduced, and then updated with an Inter Ministerial Decree in 2023.
For years Erickson has been responsible for drafting the most complete and up-to-date materials to compile the national IEP model, and is therefore a point of reference for all teachers working in Italian schools. The Erickson volumes dedicated to the IEP constitute a complete work programme for all school levels. In Italy they have sold over 80,000 copies.
The key concepts of the IEP
BIO-PSYCHO-SOCIAL MODEL The IEP deals with the well-being of the student in all areas: physical, psychological and social.
OWG The Operational Working Group on inclusion, made up of the class council, manager, external experts from the healthcare world, parents and students.
FAMILY INVOLVEMENT With a view to school-family educational alliance and sharing of the educational programme.
LIFE-ADULTITY PROJECT Looking at the student from a broader perspective, towards a horizon that outlines their adult life.
