Thinking about filing a state complaint? Know the difference between TWO types of violations!
Karen explains that special education complaints may involve procedural violations or substantive violations.
Procedural violations involve failures to follow required processes, while substantive violations concern a student's educational rights, including the right to FAPE.
Both can be important, but the facts and potential remedies matter!
Parents, before filing, identify what went wrong, document your concerns, and understand which rights may have been violated.
