How do LEAs enter data for itinerant teachers?
Teachers with itinerant teaching assignments are identified with an educational service job classification of “itinerant or pull-out/push-in;” then, depending on whether the instructor is providing departmentalized instruction (e.g., band) or support instruction, the LEA should create a course section for the specific content area in which the teacher is teaching, or use a State Course Code of “3020” (Consultation/Support – elementary or secondary). If the assignment is specific to students in special education, then the “special education” instructional strategy should be selected in the course section record as well. NOTE: Student course enrollment records are NOT required for itinerant or pull-out/push-in teaching assignments. See the CALPADS Data Guide, Section 2.2 Staff Data Overview and Section 2.3.1 Course Content, for more information.
