Ï㽶ֱ²¥ School District is one of many school districts using a new Competency Based Individualized Education Plan (IEP) that is reflective of the redesignedÌýcurriculum. Students with identified special needs, as defined by the Ministry of Education,Ìýhave an IEP to lay out goals specific to their individual programs. Supported by the Ministry of Education, this revised format is designed to encourage student voice as active participants in IEP development, and link learning to the development of the core and curricular competencies of our BC Curriculum.
We are exploring ways to activate student voice through ongoing self-assessment of IEP goals. Several school teams are engaging in an inquiry process using a template from Shelley Moore (2018). We wonder how this new learning will promote self-awareness, reflection and self-advocacy for our learners.
