Something I found out when I decided I'd kindasortamaybe track down my IEP....

[conuly]

Gifted kids are supposed to get IEPs. Kids with behavioural problems are supposed to get IEPs. Kids with learning disabilites are supposed to get IEPs. Really, as near as I can tell, any kid in any sort of special program is supposed to get an IEP.

Now you know. This has been a public service announcement.

If I ever get off my ass and find it, I'll post interesting tidbits from my IEP, but don't hold your breath.

The problem in England is often that neither end is helped enough. Brighter kids aren't stretched, poorer kids aren't helped. The emphasis is put on those on the C/D border to try and get them up to Cs.
