Definition(s)

  • Compensatory services are educational services that are awarded to students with disabilities to make up for services that they lost because of a school board's failure to provide an appropriate educational placement under the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA). Courts may grant compensatory educational service awards to students with disabilities in situations where school officials failed to provide a free appropriate public education (FAPE).
