RESULTS
DRIVEN ACCOUNTABILITY (RDA)
OSEP is reconceptualizing its accountability
system. That system, Results Driven
Accountability (RDA), is aligned to best
support States in improving results for
students with disabilities.
RESULTS
DRIVEN ACCOUNTABILITY (RDA)
Previously, OSEP’s accountability system,
including the SPP/APR, was heavily focused
on compliance with statutory and regulatory
requirements, with limited focus on how the
requirements impacted results for students
with disabilities.
RESULTS
DRIVEN ACCOUNTABILITY (RDA)
RDA balances the focus on improved
educational results and functional outcomes
for students with disabilities while
considering compliance as it relates to those
results and outcomes. The SPP/APR is a
critical component of RDA

a) are the way you identify and
prioritize needs and
b) establish baseline performance in
order to develop an individualized

describe the anticipated
progress that will result
from specially designed
instruction the student will
receive.
Based on data contained
in the PLAAFP
Has 4 Components:
a.Behavior
b.Conditions
c.Criteria
d.Timeframe
Identify and select a need from
the PLAAFP.
Consider the general education
standards and curriculum for
the student’s grade level and
age/grade expectations for
other performance skills.
Identify the performance to be
measured.
(Behavior)
Specify how the progress toward
the goal will be measured.
(Condition)
Determine to what level the
behavior must occur.
(Criteria)
Specify amount of time that will
be required for the student to
attain the criterion.
(Timeframe)
Does
it pass the stranger test?
Is it based upon a need for specialized
instruction?
Does it contain the four elements?

Timeframe
There will NO KAMM this year!
There are two choices. Either the general assessment
with accommodations or the alternate assessment
New guidelines for qualifying for the alternate
assessment-(Website)
Students taking the alternate assessment will utilize
the new format for Reading and Math
Science will be the old way
Social Studies and Government will be a pilot
On the IEP only write Alternate. DO NOT write any
extended standards on the IEP.
As you write new IEPs change those using the KAMM
to either the general assessment with
accommodations or the alternate whichever is the
most appropriate.
Replace the F service code with G
New code for Gifted only under long term
suspension. The code is S when a student is no
longer receiving services due to the suspension
For students who move in the beginning date is
the date they started school
The end date is the same that they came in with
Make sure your start dates and end dates are
correct
You can start over on the services page if you
make it a new IEP
Technical
errors can be fixed without a
meeting
Procedural errors must be fixed with the
parent
The
parent does only need to sign once.
Have legitimate potential harmful effects.
This
is the most important form!
Make sure it is current to what you are
currently providing
ESI?
Still
pockets of excess but much better
overall
Whether
you utilize new data, existing data
or a combination of both you must always
complete an evaluation report!
Initial comprehensive evaluations should be
ever increasingly purposeful in regards to the
data collected and the assessments
administered. (What does that mean?)
We must have good front side communication
in regards to all evaluations!!!
