Question:

Can my child’s IEP be changed because of their behavior?

Answer:

If the IEP team determines that your child’s behavior is a result of their disability, they will need to conduct a functional behavioral assessment, adjust the behavior plan if needed, and return your child to their original placement. If the behavior is not related to their disability, your child may face disciplinary actions like suspension or expulsion, and the IEP team will decide what services are necessary during that time.
