Question

What is an IEPT?

Answer

IEPT stands for an Individualized Educational Planning Team.

The Individualized Educational Planning Team (IEPT) is required by law and is one of the most important committees in your school. You are an important member of this committee. It is a special committee formed to review the specific needs of your child. It assures that your child's learning program meets your child's particular needs.

An IEPT must be convened to develop an Individualized Education Program (IEP) for every student currently receiving or who will receive special education services. The IEPT determines the student's eligibility, and the appropriateness of programs and/or services to be provided. The IEPT reviews relevant information and recommendations provided by the MET.
