5 IEP Meeting Script-Flips

The meeting turns on one sentence, and you have about four seconds to find the right words.

Why This Resource Matters

IEP and 504 meetings are where a student’s access gets decided, and where families and advocates most often get talked around. Having the language ready changes the outcome in the room.

What You Will Be Ready For

• When the team calls a student defiant

• When you are told accommodations are not working

• When you are told the student does not qualify
