Present Levels

Present levels describe the student’s current performance and needs. In plain language, this is where the IEP should explain what is happening now.

For school-based physical therapy, present levels may describe mobility, access, participation, positioning, endurance, equipment use, transitions, safety, independence, or other school routines.
