Service Plan Template

Service Plan is created with an educational team. Student has to qualify for special education. The plan should be reviewed annually.

• If the student does not have a current evaluation that is valid for the team to use to determine appropriate services, then the school will have to provide an evaluation.

• Only if a student would qualify if they were in the regular school setting, does the student qualify for special education services.

Plan Basics:

• Eligibility - must meet special education eligibility as if the student were in regular school setting.

• Needs - what educational needs does the student have

• Services - what educational/special education services are appropriate for the student; must correlate with the student's needs

  • Services do not have to be at the student's home

    • Services can be at school, the district may have to provide transportation

• Duration of Services - when would the services start and end (remember funding is based on the current year's proportionate share in the IDEA grant)

• Goals/Activities - what will the student be working on during these services (this is not an IEP and doe not need to be annually measured goals or have baseline data)
