Staff who work in special education programs are often confronted with questions regarding the types of programs, special procedures and the expenses involved in meeting the needs of students with disabilities. Special education rules and procedures have been developed to help insure that programs are fair and appropriate. One of the first important principles is that educational programs are for ALL children. Secondly, students with disabilities must have the same opportunities to participate in educational programs as children who are not labeled as disabled. Familiarity with these two principles helps paraprofessionals be more effective advocates for students with disabilities.
Access to an education is an important right which can provide a lifetime of opportunities. Conversely, a lack of access to an education may seriously limit the quality of life and potential success of an individual. A number of legal decisions have highlighted the importance of this right for students with disabilities. This concept is stated in the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA)
. The law refers to this right to an education using the terminology, Free Appropriate Public Education (FAPE). Please see Unit 1K2 and 1K5 to read more about these laws.
FAPE means that special education and related services must:
FAPE means that states and local schools are required to provide educational and related services to students with disabilities without charging the students or their parents. Schools cannot refuse to provide an education because of the increased costs involved in educating a student with a disability. It further means that this education must meet state standards and be based on the individual needs of the student.
There has been additional legislation passed since the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) was passed in 1975 that provides for education for infants, toddlers and preschool children with disabilities. The legislation was amended in 1986 as P.L. 99-457, and included a new Part H-The Infants and Toddlers with Disabilities program for eligible birth through two year old children with disabilities and their families. Additional amendments to IDEA in 1997 resulted the Assistance for Education of All Children with Disabilities which states (with limitations):
A free appropriate public education is available to all children with disabilities residing in the State between the ages of 3 and 21, inclusive, including children with disabilities who have been suspended or expelled from school.
