Special education records to check
The table identifies related records. Use their effective dates to establish what happened for this student. After parental consent, CDE recommends reporting a pending initial evaluation in MEET. A referral alone does not establish SWDS eligibility or participation. CDE special education reporting FAQ.
| Record or snapshot | Record family | What it establishes | This page |
|---|---|---|---|
| Enrollment | SENR 1.xx | Where and when the student is enrolled | Confirm relationship and date |
| SWDS status | SWDS 22.xx | Eligibility and participation over time | Confirm relationship and date |
| MEET | MEET 24.xx | Referral, evaluation, meeting, or pending event | Confirm relationship and date |
| PLAN | PLAN 23.xx | The operative IEP, IFSP, ISP, setting, and plan facts | Rule focus |
| SERV | SERV 25.xx | Services reported under the plan | Confirm relationship and date |
| Fall 1 snapshot | Certification | The relationships effective for the reporting rule | Confirm relationship and date |

Six questions that resolve this certification finding
| Question | Specific finding | Evidence |
|---|---|---|
| What passed? | Individual transactions may have posted successfully. | Submission detail and ODS history |
| What did Fall 1 expect? | A documented conference date that belongs to the child’s transition event and agrees with the Y indicator. | Snapshot relationship logic |
| What is inconsistent? | The indicator is Y but the conference date is blank, rejected, placed in the wrong field, or attached to a different PLAN/SSID. | Student-level certification detail |
| Who owns correction? | Special education staff and the SEDS own PLAN, SWDS, MEET, and SERV facts; enrollment staff and the SIS own SENR; CALPADS and SELPA staff reconcile identifiers, organizations, and effective dates. | SIS, SEDS, and authoritative records |
| What must change? | Report the documented transition conference date. If no conference occurred or the indicator is wrong, reconcile the IFSP and source system rather than inventing a date. | Supported source transaction |
| What proves resolution? | 1.0 Certification Errors; 16.12 Students with Disabilities Education Plan by Primary Disability; 16.14 Students with Disabilities Plan Student List; 16.17 Students with Disabilities Annual Comparison; applicable county, SELPA, and accountability reports | Refreshed snapshot and student support |
Recommended correction path
- 1
Locate the exact certification row
Match the SSID, Reporting LEA/SELPA, school, operative dates, and snapshot revision identified by PLAN0725F1.
- 2
Build one effective-date timeline
Place SENR, SWDS, MEET, PLAN, and SERV records in chronological order. A present record can still be outside the required reporting window.
- 3
Verify the trigger
- Confirm 23.35 is Y.
- Locate the actual conference record and participants.
- Distinguish conference date from referral, consent, meeting, PLAN effective, and upload dates.
- Verify the date belongs to this SSID and operative IFSP.
- 4
Reconcile with authoritative evidence
Compare SIS, SEDS, signed plan/meeting documents, organization directories, and CALPADS ODS history. Special education staff and the SEDS own PLAN, SWDS, MEET, and SERV facts; enrollment staff and the SIS own SENR; CALPADS and SELPA staff reconcile identifiers, organizations, and effective dates.
- 5
Make the supported correction
Report the documented transition conference date. If no conference occurred or the indicator is wrong, reconcile the IFSP and source system rather than inventing a date. Repair the owning source/export so the discrepancy is not recreated.
- 6
Regenerate and reconcile
Regenerate Fall 1, verify PLAN0725F1 clears, and reconcile 1.0 Certification Errors; 16.12 Students with Disabilities Education Plan by Primary Disability; 16.14 Students with Disabilities Plan Student List; 16.17 Students with Disabilities Annual Comparison; applicable county, SELPA, and accountability reports. Aggregate and student-level histories must agree.
