What is not a component of an Individualized Education Program (IEP)?

The correct answer identifies that "current levels of emotional support" is not a typical component included in an Individualized Education Program (IEP). An IEP is primarily focused on the educational needs and provides a roadmap for the services and support a child with disabilities requires to succeed academically.

The IEP must include specific components such as the child's present levels of academic performance, measurable goals and objectives for the student, and details about how services will be delivered, including the amount and frequency of those services. While emotional support may be relevant to a child's overall well-being and can be included as part of the educational framework, it is not a formalized component like the others listed. The emphasis of an IEP is more on academic and functional skills necessary for the child’s educational success rather than a standalone assessment of emotional needs.

This understanding helps clarify why emotional support is not explicitly addressed in the same way as the other components, which are essential for planning and implementing educational strategies tailored to the individual student.
