What is SRBI?
• Scientifically Researched-Based
Interventions (SRBI) emphasize
successful instruction for all students
through high quality core general
education practices, as well as targeted
interventions for students experiencing
learning, social-emotional or behavioral
difficulties.
Core Principals
• Universal screening to identify struggling
students (no more wait to fail)
• Increasingly intensive education
interventions presented in tiers
• The use of researched-based curricula in
all tiers
Core Principals
• Frequent performance monitoring of each
child’s progress in each tier
• Data-based decision making when moving
from tier to tier
• Fidelity of implementation
A Three Tiered Model
• Using a three tiered system of instruction,
and monitoring of learning rates over time,
practitioners can make informed datadriven decisions about educational
progress and outcomes of each and every
child in the school.

Tier 2 -Targeted Groups
(Small group, 8-10 students)
Approx. 10% at-risk students need
these interventions in addition to
Tier 1.

What Resources are Needed to
Understand and Successfully
Implement SRBI?
Professional Development
• Matching the intervention to the student’s
core deficit
• Progress Monitoring – graphing and
charting the data
• Scheduling and creative use of personnel
to deliver Intervention
Resources
• Identify and systematically purchase:
– efficient universal screening instruments
– efficient progress monitoring assessments
– researched based literacy and numeracy
intervention materials (including software
programs and manipulative based programs)
