Document based IEP review
Check the pages you already have
The review reads the pages you upload, points to the wording behind each concern, and helps you prepare questions. It does not send anything to your school or decide a legal claim.
Common questions
What does assistive technology repair and backup plan review check?
It checks if the assistive technology repair and backup record is specific, data-backed, and connected to the IEP sections that should guide services, supports, progress, or school decisions.
What should I look at first?
Start with the current IEP page tied to the concern, then compare it with the most recent evaluation, progress report, service log, school notice, or email that explains what happened.
What should I ask the school if something is missing?
Put the request in writing for the specific missing data, page, service detail, or written decision. Keep the request narrow so the school can answer it clearly.
