These forms guide the school team when
developing the student’s program. The development of this program is the
responsibility of the school. Parents/guardians are invited to provide
input into the decisions regarding accommodations, modifications, or
alternate programming. In the case of a student requiring support from
other agencies, an Individual Support Services Plan (ISSP) may be
required. More detailed information
regarding Pathways is available at
http://www.ed.gov.nl.ca/edu/dept/sss.htm#Publications in the
document Pathways to Programming and Graduation (1998) which is
currently being revised. Information regarding the Model for
Coordination of Services for Children and Youth with Special Needs,
which gives information regarding ISSPs, is available at
http://www.mcscy.nl.ca/. This
model is also currently under review. Both of these documents are being
revised as a result of the government commissioned report "Focusing on
Students - The ISSP and Pathways Commission Report." This report,
government’s implementation plan, and the news release issued at the
time of the report can be accessed online on the main page of the
Department of Education website at
