Differentiated
Education Plan(DEP) |
Students
who meet the criteria for specified service option will receive a
(DEP). The
SBC-GE will recommend service options matching the intensity of the
student's need. The student's level of need will determine the
amount of service differentiation and the setting in which it will
be provided. Daily language arts and mathematics instruction
are provided
within the regular classroom setting. The level of need will determine
whether the student will receive additional instruction outside of the regular
classroom. A moderate need for differentiation is usually met through
service in the regular education classroom. |
Individual
Differentiated Education Plan (IDEP)
|
(IDEP)
may be developed for "that very small group of unique students identified as
academically or intellectually gifted who do not fit any of the programs
listed in the Differentiated Education Plan." In Wake
County, the IDEP is used under these circumstances:
|
| |
-
As
an alternative method for identifying and serving certain unique
students who clearly need service but would not be eligible
for it otherwise. This may include students in under-served
populations, such as those who are economically disadvantaged,
disabled, or with
cultural or language differences.
|
| |
-
For
students in grades K-3 whose demonstrated performance is two
or more years above their current grade placement, the SBC-GE
may feel that
more information is needed to plan an appropriate educational
program. Data
such as reading, writing, and/or math assessment matrices will be
collected. The child might also be referred for an individually
administered psycho-educational evaluation to aid in the development
of the IDEP.
|
Differentiated
Course Plans (DCPs)
|
Since
students are identified and served in language arts and/or math,
there are specific units of study at the
elementary level and courses at the secondary level which provide
appropriate instructional experiences. Recommended instructional
methods of content differentiation are clearly defined for each of
these options on the Differentiated Course Plans (DCP). DCPs
are kept on file at each school and provided to parents upon request.
|
The
SBC-GE makes
recommendations for services at a particular school. If the student moves
to a new school, the current DEP will be reviewed and modified, or a new DEP
or
IDEP will be developed. |
