A Functional Behavioral Assessment is a document that is created and used to figure out the cause behind a behavior that is negatively impacting the student's learning.
A Functional Behavior Assessment is used to make a plan to help with a child's behavior. The FBA team works to define the behavior that is negatively impacting their education, gathers and analyzes information and then uses that information that they have been analyzes to determine the reason for the behavior. After the reason for the behavior is determined, a Behavior Intervention Plan is created and implemented.
An FBA is generally used if a student's behavior is interfering with their learning. An FBA is created and used to evaluate the need for special education services. If a student is already classified or has a 504 Plan and is demonstrating behaviors that are negatively impacting their behavior, an FBA must be created. In addition to the above, a FBA must be used when classified students or students with a 504 Plan are exhibiting behaviors that lead to discipline or removal from school. This is federal law. It is used to determine the risks related to threats, drugs and or weapons.
