What is a Personal Program Plan?
A Personal Program Plan (PPP) is a written document developed and implemented by a collaborative team. It is a compilation of student outcomes that have the highest priority for the student during the year. It includes:
-
student identification and background information;
-
student strengths, needs and preferences;
-
current levels of performance;
-
annual student outcomes (specific, measurable, achievable, relevant & timely);
-
short-term objectives or indicators (specific, measurable, achievable, relevant & timely);
-
strategies and resources;
-
team members who will implement the PPP, and the frequency, duration and location for implementation;
-
plans for evaluation and review;
-
procedures for reporting;
-
plans for transitions; and
-
signatures of team members.
Who needs a Personal Program Plan?
A PPP is required for students who:
-
are working on learning outcomes that differ from those in provincial curricula for their grade level;
-
require continuing interventions and individualized supports beyond the Adaptive Dimension; or
-
have been identified as requiring intensive supports level 1 or 2.
Every student who requires a PPP will not meet criteria for intensive supports.
All students identified with intensive needs require a PPP.
Why are Personal Program Plans developed?
PPPs provide annual and short term objectives and indicators that support outcome-focused educational programming for students.
