In 2010, the Ministry of Education commissioned a review of the national and international literature around IEPs to inform their future use.
The study concluded the following.
Success for All – Every School, Every Child (2010) (PDF, 1.1MB) –sets out the government’s vision of a fully inclusive education system
Confident schools, students, parents/caregivers, whānau, and communities are at the heart of this vision.
The National Administration Guidelines (NAGs) provide the policy framework for IEPs, and the principles that inform IEP processes apply to all teaching and learning.
