A procedure should be in place whereby the teacher(s) and/or other designated representatives of the school are provided the opportunity to communicate recommendations, participate in the planning and decisions for coordination between the educational plan and the treatment plan. The school shall have authority and responsibility for the educational plan.

(c) The educational plan shall describe the appropriate curriculum, instructional time, and educational setting based on the individual needs of the child.
