Teaching · Special Education

Every related service tied to a need, a goal and a number of minutes.

Start from the needs, then list each service with the goal it supports, minutes, frequency, where it happens and whether it is direct or consult. The summary adds up the minutes per week, shows the time outside the general class and points out any need with no service behind it.

Drawn for this page. Related services are the support around the student’s education: speech, handwriting, feelings, getting around.

What the plan is for

What counts as a related service

Under IDEA, related services are the developmental, corrective and other supportive services a student needs to benefit from special education, such as speech-language pathology, audiology, interpreting, psychological services, physical and occupational therapy, recreation, counseling, orientation and mobility, school health and school nurse services, social work, parent counseling and training, and transportation. The list is not exhaustive. The IEP states each with when it starts, how often, where and for how long.

Minutes and the week

Weekly and monthly services are hard to compare at a glance. The summary spreads a monthly service over four weeks to give a rough weekly figure, and shows how much of the school week the student spends away from the general class, which also feeds the placement discussion.

What this form is not

It is a planning draft. It does not decide which services a student needs; the IEP team does, from evaluation data. Records use a code, never a name, and stay in this browser.
