At the heart of every Individualized Education Plan (IEP) are educators working hard to provide the instruction, intervention, and support a student needs to thrive in school. Documentation and compliance matter, but they can’t come at the expense of the instruction and intervention that drive student outcomes. Finding the right balance between the two is one of the biggest challenges special education leaders face.

During this edWeb podcast, Pamela Wimbish, Director of Special Education for Birmingham City Schools (AL), shares how her district built sustainable systems and processes to strengthen IEP compliance and simplify documentation, freeing up more time and attention for instruction, intervention, and student growth.

You learn:

• Key steps and decision points for building systems that support both compliance and targeted intervention
• How to build staff buy-in for standardizing service tracking and progress monitoring across a district
• How to leverage technology to create sustainable practices that reduce compliance risk while keeping the focus on instruction
• How to strike a sustainable balance between compliance and instruction as a district evolves

Listeners leave this session with a practical framework for strengthening IEP documentation and tracking, closing compliance gaps, and keeping instruction and intervention at the center of the work. This edWeb podcast is of interest to PreK-12 school and district leaders, special education leaders, MTSS/RTI leaders, intervention specialists, and education technology leaders.
