Avez-vous entendu parler d’un comité d’identification, de placement et de révision (CIPR) et de l’incidence qu’il peut avoir sur l’éducation de votre enfant?

Un CIPR est un comité du conseil scolaire qui décide si un·e élève peut être identifié·e comme ayant des besoins d’apprentissage particuliers et, le cas échéant, détermine le placement et les mesures de soutien qui l’aideront le mieux à réussir. Ce processus est une occasion cruciale pour les familles de partager les points forts, les besoins et les préférences de leur enfant, tout en veillant à ce que leur droit à un soutien approprié soit protégé.
