Tommasini, Director, Bureau of Special Education Subject: Special Education Plan Trainings for Phase 3 Districts The Pennsylvania Department of Education (PDE) is responsible for ensuring that all special education programs in schools are appropriate and effective. To do this, school districts must submit a Special Education Plan every three years to PDE as required under 22 Pa Code 14.104. The school district’s Special Education Plan focuses on plans generated from compliance monitoring, professional development activities and training necessary to provide appropriate programs to students with disabilities. School districts will submit their plans starting on May 1, 2014, via the Comprehensive Planning Web Application. Training regarding the Comprehensive Planning Web Application will be a critical component of the Special Education Plan training. Special Education Plan training for Phase 3 school districts will be held on the following dates at the three Pennsylvania Training and Technical Assistance Network (PaTTAN) locations.
