IDEA requires states to submit a number of reports for both state and federal
accountability purposes. These reports include data reports as well as
performance reports. Federal reporting requirements are as follows:
State Performance Plan and Annual Performance Report
Public Law 108-446 (IDEA 2004) requires that no later than one year after
the date of enactment (i.e., December 3, 2005), each State Education Agency
and Lead Agency for Part C must develop and submit to OSEP a six year State
Performance Plan (SPP). The SPP is designed to evaluate the State's efforts
to implement the requirements and purposes of Part B and Part C respectively
and describe how the state will improve its implementation. Each state is
required to report annually to the public and to OSEP on each local
education agency's and Part C program's performance on the targets in the
SPP through an Annual Performance Report (APR).
The conference report to HR 1350 indicates that Congress expected that
the SPP, including its indicators and targets, would be developed by states
with broad stakeholder input and public dissemination. As a result, States
needed to carefully plan on how they would complete these activities. The
SPP required that states collect and analyze baseline data to respond to
specific priorities and indicators, establish measurable and rigorous
targets, and identify improvement activities to ensure improved performance
for each indicator during the six-year time frame (FFY 2005 through FFY 2010).
In accordance with 20 U.S.C. 1416(b)(2)(C)(ii)(II) and 1442, each state
is required to submit a State Annual Performance Report (APR). This report
includes data on the progress and/or slippage in meeting the 'measurable and
rigorous targets' in the SPP and may serve as the state's annual report to
the public/Secretary. The next APR is due in February 1, 2007. Each state
is required to post its SPP/APR on its' state website. If a state
modifies its targets or other baseline information, the changes must be
reported to OSEP.
SPP/APR Resources
Current APR/SPP General Guidance/Instructions including tables, templates
and attachments are available as follows.
The National Accountability Conference website
provides information on the SPP/APR. The Federal Resource Center also makes
available information and materials related to the
SPP/APR
to assist states in completing their SPPs/APRs. The information includes:
Section 618 Data Reports
Section 618 of IDEA requires states to annually collect and report data related to
children served, settings of services, personnel, exiting, and other areas specific
to Part C and Part B. Data is reported in the form of tables, which are included in
the Annual Reports
to Congress. To assist states in collecting and reporting required data under
Section 618 of IDEA, OSEP has developed
documentation requirements and
forms. A number of technical assistance questions and
answers documents have been developed to assist states in reporting data. Annual data tables are also
available at ideadata.org before they are
published in the Annual Reports.
Section 619 Data Tables include:
- Child Count
— counts of children ages 3 through 5 receiving special education and
related services on December 1; provided by disability by individual age and by
disability by race/ethnicity.
