Understanding Provision Maps & IEPs

Learning Support Educators are responsible for reviewing IEPs, recording and reporting IEP implementation, and participating in Provision Mapping programmes.

MAPs and IEPs are intended to help educators plan the academic year. These programmes enable educators to adapt their teaching strategies according to students' needs. Moreover, research shows that these approaches positively impact the lives of students with disabilities.

This module, therefore, focuses on the importance of IEPs (Individualised Educational Programmes), their formulation and implementation.
