[Requirements for Funding] The Individual Education Plan (IEP) is the "keystone" of the special education system. IDEA requires LEAs and other public agencies* to develop an IEP for every eligible child with disabilities and report on progress toward annual goals. The IEP team, which includes educators and parents and charged with the development of the student's educational program, develops each IEP. The IEP team must: Determine which state NCLB assessment a disabled student will take based on his or her individualized needs Consider language needs and how those needs relate to the student's IEP Measure the academic achievement of each child *IDEA regulations use the term "public agency," which includes LEAs, SEAs, educational service agencies, nonprofit public charter schools, and any other political subdivisions of the state responsible for providing education to children with disabilities. States must also provide a free appropriate public education for students with disabilities attending private schools. (Source: L Manasevit, C. Plagata-Neubauer, T. Winters. 2010.
