Prevent adversarial relationships with parents — and costly legal disputes — by learning how to clearly explain your district’s IDEA duties so parents understand the legal basis for your decisions regarding their child.
Concrete communication strategies empower you to:
- Convey the revised standard of FAPE resulting from the Supreme Court’s Endrew F. decision
- Engage in preconference discussions without making parents feel services and placements have been predetermined
- Prepare for potentially difficult situations, such as discussing students’ problem behavior
- And more
Plus, to put theory into practice, 10 scenarios illustrate common communications-based conflicts — complete with Professional Development Guides — ideal for training staff to respond appropriately to parents’ requests and to problem-solve before situations arise.
