Conducting Individualized Education Program (IEP) Team Meetings When Members Disagree (Office of Dispute Resolution Learning Library, CIEES, ODU)

Description:

Conducting Individualized Education Program (IEP) Team Meetings When Members Disagree - Parent participation and teamwork are fundamental to special education. Parent feedback is a necessity in ensuring that a student is receiving a free appropriate public education. However, team participants do not always agree and conflict is a natural occurrence in team dynamics. Recognizing that conflict will happen, but that a healthy relationship between all members is in the best interest of the student, the Virgniia Department of Education (VDOE) in partnership with the Center for Implementation and Evaluation of Education Systems (CIEES), Old Dominion University, (ODU) created these resources to support IEP teams navigate conflict successfully.
