Final answer:
The process where a student's inappropriate behavior is reviewed in relation to their disability after violating a code of conduct, under IDEA, is called a manifestation determination review (MDR).
Step-by-step explanation:
The process required under the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) when a student with a disability violates a school's code of conduct is known as a manifestation determination review (MDR). This is a team evaluation that considers the relationship between the student's disability and the behavior in question to determine if the behavior is a manifestation of the student's disability. The team, which includes parents, teachers, and other professionals, must consider all relevant information, including the student's IEP, any teacher observations, and any relevant information provided by the parents.
If the behavior is determined to be a manifestation of the student's disability, the school must either conduct a functional behavioral assessment (unless one has already been conducted) and implement a behavioral intervention plan, or, if a behavioral intervention plan is already in place, review the plan and modify it as necessary to address the behavior. Furthermore, the school is required to return the child to the placement from which they were removed, unless the parent and the school agree to a change of placement as part of the modification of the behavioral intervention plan.
