Info

The Algoma District School Board has moved to new IEP engine that is web based.Training for SERTs was conducted throughout the 2011 – 2012 school year with gradualimplementation is the fall of 2011.I.E.P.s are developed jointly between the classroom teacher(s) and the Special EducationResource Teacher using the documentation obtained through assessment reports, usingthe I.P.R.C. information and in conjunction with the staff support and technology availableto the Algoma District School Board. Accommodations and/or modifications are clearlyidentified in the IEP. The principal is responsible to ensure the IEP is implemented andreviewed throughout the school year. In-school team meetings are held throughout theyear to review and at times revise a student’s IEP. The SERT and classroom teacherfocus on the strengths and needs of a student and work to effectively implement thestrategies outlined in the IEP. Parents review the I.E.P. and offer their input on their child’slearning styles and needs. If there is a disagreement about the I.E.P. and there is noresolution at the school level, the Special Education Coordinator for that school will contactthe parents and work to facilitate a resolution. Following that, if the parent still hasquestions after having been shown the Ministry I.E.P. guidelines and discussing the issueswith a Superintendent of Education, they will be given the contact information of theMinistry of Education.June 2012 20 of 68
Health Support ServicesHealth Support Services are delivered by qualified practitioners who come to the schoolfrom school support agencies when medical documentation indicates that theseprocedures must be done during the school day. Schools complete referral forms providedby these agencies and then the individual agencies work with the families to determineappropriate care. School boards do not determine the criteria for this service. Servicesdiscontinue if M.D. documentation declares them unnecessary for the school supportagency discharges according to their criteria. Such services such as O.T., P.T. andSpeech Language Services (a small portion of school-aged students requiring speechservices who are served by North East Community Care Access Centre) are controlleddirectly by the delivery agency. Agencies determine the criteria and level of service andhave indicated a reduced level of support due to the unavailability of professionals to hire.This service model reflects the fact that the Algoma District School Board does not employOccupational Therapists or Physical Therapists. There have been no appeals on theseservice issues.Appendix 10June 2012 21 of 68
