Secondary Transition

Secondary transition planning happens when a student’s Individualized Education Plan (IEP) team meets to design a plan of activities to assist and prepare a student in special education to move from high school to the workplace or higher education. Planning for adolescents’ post-school lives must begin by age 14, and it requires transition goals to be incorporated into the IEP process. Secondary transition supports and services can include:

  • Professional learning for special education teachers to enhance the development of transition plans within IEPs
  • Consultation to enhance transition services within the district system
  • Coaching for teachers to identify effective instructional strategies and opportunities for students
