The review took place throughout the 2022-2023 school year and engaged students, families, administrators, community partners, and special education staff. This data gathering process was focused on helping the Board align its actions with its intentions related to equity, inclusive practices, and high expectations. To view the final review report, visit the Board\u2019s\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.tldsb.ca\/special-education\/\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Special Education page<\/span><\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cIn TLDSB, we are committed to ensuring that high-quality programs and services are in place for all students with special education needs,\u201d said TLDSB director of education, Wes Hahn. \u201cThe Learning About the IEP Experience Survey was developed as a way for TLDSB to gather input about the IEP process, to ensure we are meeting the needs of our students and their families.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>From April 2 to 12, two surveys will be conducted: one for parents\/guardians, and one for students. Parents\/guardians of a student(s) with an IEP will receive the survey via email and are encouraged to complete one survey per student online. Paper copies are available upon request by contacting your child\u2019s school. Grade 7-12 students with an IEP will receive the survey via email and are encouraged to complete the survey by the closing date of Friday, April 12.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This survey is confidential and anonymous. Individual responses will be compiled and provided to SEAC and the Board with no identifiable information. Along with the Special Education Review and other resources, the data collected throughout the survey will help to inform priorities and next steps to ensure the system has the right programs and services in place to support students with special needs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe TLDSB SEAC completed a similar survey in 2018 and 2020,\u201d explained superintendent of learning responsible for Special Education Services, Jennifer Johnston. \u201cThe results from past surveys assisted the committee with recommendations that have since been successfully implemented to enhance the student experience.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ontario school boards are required to have a SEAC. The role of SEAC is to make representation to the Board in respect to any matter affecting the establishment, development, and delivery of special education programs and services for exceptional students of the Board.
