An Individual Education Plan (IEP) is a way of recording the extra help a pupil is receiving through the SEN framework and what the pupil is aiming towards. It should explain how the child’s work is different from the normal work of the class. The IEP should be simple, and targets should be specific and achievable. If possible, the pupil should understand the targets and be happy to work towards them.
The education plan should set out:
- the nature of the child’s learning difficulties;
- the special educational provision required, including staff involved, frequency of support and any specific programmes, activities, materials or equipment;
- the nature of the support required from parents at home;
- the targets to be achieved in a given time;
- any pastoral care or medical requirements;
- the monitoring and assessment arrangements;
- the review arrangements and date.
