What to check
Read the plan for these specific details
Does each goal include a baseline?
Does each goal define mastery with a number or observable criterion?
Does the goal address the student's documented need?
Sample goal-review finding
The goal is missing the data that makes it usable
What the record shows
The goal names a broad skill but not the starting point, target level, measurement method, or report schedule.
What to ask for
Put this in writing: the team should add the baseline and progress-measurement details before agreeing to the goal.
A written request you can use
Send one specific question
“Please point me to the data and IEP pages that support the proposed goals, services, accommodations, and placement, and provide Prior Written Notice if the team is refusing a requested change.”
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 should I review first for IEP Goal Review?
Start with the current IEP and the most recent evaluation. Compare the student's documented needs with the Present Levels, annual goals, services, accommodations, and progress reports.
Can I ask the school for IEP changes after reviewing the document?
Yes. Parents can request an IEP meeting at any time. Put the concern and requested change in writing. If the school refuses, ask for Prior Written Notice explaining the refusal and the data used.
What documents should I bring to an IEP review?
Bring the current IEP, the most recent evaluation, progress reports, work samples, relevant emails, attendance or discipline records when applicable, and a short list of your top concerns.
