What is NOT a required component of an Individualized Educational Plan (IEP) as outlined by IDEA part B?

The correct choice reflects that providing transportation services is not a mandated component of an Individualized Educational Plan (IEP) under the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) Part B. An IEP must include specific components such as measurable goals aimed at addressing educational deficits, a plan for transitioning into adulthood for students aged 16 and over, and a detailed outline of services to support the student, including their frequency.

While transportation can be an important accommodation for some students, it is considered a related service rather than a core requirement of the IEP itself. The focus of an IEP is primarily on educational goals and the specific supports necessary for a child to make progress in the educational setting. Therefore, while transportation could be included if deemed necessary for a particular student to receive a free appropriate public education (FAPE), it is not an obligatory element of all IEPs.
