National Standards for Special Education

The National Standards for Special Education provide guidelines to ensure students with disabilities receive appropriate, consistent, and effective educational services across schools. They outline best practices for evaluation, individualized planning, teaching strategies, and inclusive environments. The goal is to support these students' learning, progress, and overall development, ensuring they have equal opportunities to succeed academically and socially. These standards help educators and schools maintain quality and accountability in delivering special education programs, fostering an equitable educational experience for all students.
