Parent/Guardian Resources

Supports for Identified Students

Once a student has been identified as exceptional at an IPRC (Individual Placement and Review Committee), an IEP (Individual Education Plan) is written and shared with the student, their parents, and teachers. In order to help students meet the expectations of the Ontario secondary school curriculum, the Peel District School Board offers two levels of special education support. https://www.peelschools.org/elementary/special-education/iprc/Pages/default.aspx

Parent/Guardian Input for IEPs

  • Parents and guardians are valuable members of the IEP team. You know your child best and your input is valuable when an IEP is developed and updated.

  • Parent/Guardian input forms are sent home at the beginning of each semester for students with IEPs. If you did not receive it or have new information to share, please reach out to your child's monitor teacher.
