The role of an IEP team is to ensure that students with special needs are provided with access to the quality services they need to achieve the best student outcomes. While the objectives are typically clearly defined, success hinges on how well the IEP team members are able and willing to collaborate to achieve desired outcomes. Unfortunately, many IEP meetings end up being contentious and unproductive -- not because team member disagrees with desired outcomes, but because the group was not taught how to successfully collaborate as a team. Successful collaboration requires clearly defined roles and responsibilities, particularly in those areas in which there are overlaps in services. It also requires a solid understanding of each other’s educational and professional backgrounds to define realistic expectations. Additionally, it requires a strong understanding of relevant laws and regulations, including IDEA and the various professional and ethical guidelines that professionals are required to uphold.
