The State of Vermont describes the PLP as “A student’s road map as they progress through their educational experience, informing choices through those years and beyond. PLPs not only help articulate and clarify students’ goals and needs but also are a reflection of the importance of student agency in learning…” “Creating Personalized Learning Plans provides students the opportunity to reflect upon their learning and shape their future, and enables the adults in their lives to better understand each student as a unique individual.” |
In Vermont, a student’s PLP must:
- Identify the student’s strengths
- Include the participation of family members and other engaged adults
- Guide decisions about their education
- Document the PLP process over time
