Description: A sample of 17 Individual Education Plans (IEPs) from 3 school boards in Ontario in 2001-2002 were analyzed using the  IEP Quality Index. The index is reliable, but requires streamlining. Of the 15 quality indicators comprising the index, only 5 were revealed as weaknesses in the set of IEPs examined. The results obtained on the indicators were correlated with the IEP standards (2000) determined by the Ministry of Education. The standards were largely adhered to and in many IEPs the details went beyond those prescribed by the Ministry. When I analysed the IEPs according to service delivery model, student exceptionality, funding and school, several indicators discriminated between the various sub-groups and the group means. When I analysed the IEPs by section, the quality of all 3 sections was fairly uniform across the sample, and the General Accommodations section was superior in quality to the other 2 sections.
