Prior Written Notice - What IDEA Requires for Special Education

Are you the parent of a child with autism that has been trying to
advocate, for a specific educational service for your child? Are you
the parent of a child with learning disabilities, who feels that they
need an Orton-Gillingham based reading program, but have no been able
to convince special education services? Prior Written Notice (PWN) may
help you in your fight. This article will discuss what the Individuals
with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) requires as far as PWN, so that
you can use it to advocate for needed educational services, for your
child.
Prior written notice must be given according to IDEA, "whenever the
local educational agency (your local school district) a. they propose
to initiate a change or b. refuses to initiate or change, the
identification, evaluation or educational placement of the child, or
the provision of a free appropriate public education to the child."
PWN must contain:
a. Description of the action proposed or refused by the agency;
b. An explanation of why the agency proposes or refuses to take the
action and a description of each evaluation procedure, assessment
record, or report the agency used as a basic for the proposed or
refused action;
c. A statement that the parents of a child with a disability have
protection under the procedural safeguards of this part;
d. Sources for parents to contact to obtain assistance in
understanding the provisions of this part;
e. A description of other options considered by the IEP team and the
reason why those options were rejected;
f. A description of the factors, that are relevant to the agency's
proposal or refusal.

Are you the parent of a child receiving special education services due to autism or a learning disability? Are you looking for a few things that you can do, this new year, to benefit your child's education? This article is for you! I will be discussing 5 things that you as a parent can do to help your child's education in this new year! Item 1: Check all of your child's past standardized testing, to see if they are on grade level. As an advocate I have helped children that have been several grade levels below their peers, and the parents did not realize this. Catching a child that is having academic difficulty early, and finding out what type of related and special education services they need, will help them keep up with their grade appropriate peers. Item 2: If you have never looked at your child's educational record contact your district office (call and make sure that this is where the records are kept), and tell them that you would like to see your child'
