SWIFT Guide / Inclusive Policy Structure & Practice / LEA Policy Framework

LEA Policy Framework

The LEA Policy Framework means that the district or local educational agency (LEA) has a formal structure to continually evaluate and rewrite policy in support of quality practices. The LEA uses information from schools to support and ensure staff receive training on relevant research and/or research-based practices.

SWIFT-IN-60

This film shows how an inclusive LEA policy framework promotes and sustains a district where every student participates meaningfully in all social and instructional settings.
