[quote=Anonymous]It’s actually pretty hard to get SPED services for kids who “only” have behavioral problems. When I worked in a school (as a social worker), the services we provided for SPED students as part of their IEPs were largely geared toward emotional regulation and focus. I don’t like behavior plans because they don’t really teach coping skills. It’s more of a reward system where kids are controlling their behavior to get rewards rather than because it’s whats best for them. While it’s possible that your school is just trying to push off a smart kid whose behavior is a hassle to deal with, it’s also possible that your child’s issues are more severe than you think and/or making it difficult for other child to access the curriculum. In your situation, I’d want to know what services they think are appropriate and what they’re basing that recommendation on before agreeing to anything, but I would also recommend listening to what they have to say.
