Case: Co-teacher problems
Ms. Lockard's Pre-K classroom is a co-teaching classroom. There is a special education teacher, regular education teacher, and a regular education para-professional in the classroom. The accommodations that are in place for the students are only being followed by the regular education teacher and the regular education para professional. The teacher has documented this and discussed the issue with administration. The administrators say they are going to follow up with the special education teacher but has not done so. The special education students are not receiving the assistance that they are required to present by law. What should the regular education do to ensure that all students in the classroom receive what they need in order to be successful?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I would inform the lead special education teacher of the services not being provided. Also, to be safe, I would review each student's IEP for possible changes in services or amendments just in case the general education teacher has not been advised, correctly. Some times meetings are held without the general education teacher and information discussed at these appointments are not redelivered back to everyone responsible for the student. In all, do your research first then let the lead special education teacher know. |

Comments: I agree totally with your solution. It is possible that the regular education teacher may not be aware of changes in accommodation for the student. However, I do believe that it is requested for regular education teachers to sit in on IEP re-evaluation meetings to inform the specialist and psychologist of the student's progress before making changes to the accommodations. |

Comments: I agree with this solution. Although I would also follow up with administration with examples of what assistance is not being received and express the importance of meeting the laws required. |

Comments: I think that making sure you are aware of any possible changes to the students IEP would be very important. I agree though that once you are certain going to the lead special ed teacher makes sense, as well as going back to the administration to reiterate the existing problem. |

Comments: The head of the special education department should be the first person involved in this process. They can give you advice and also back you up with administration if they agree the special education students are not receiving proper instruction. |
