This is a plan that can be arranged to help a student with a disability. However, the student does not need to be receiving special education services. This plan enables a child to receive accommodations in school but does not entitle a child to an IEP. A 504 plan is provided through SECTION 504 of the Rehabilitation Act. This federal law protects a student with a disability from being discriminated against or excluded when in a program which receives federal financial assistance.

A 504 Plan is a way to provide accommodations to a child who is not in the special education system (and does not have an IEP). The 504 Plan provides these accommodations in the child’s regular general education classroom.
