AEA Superintendent Meetings
What is the C-Plan?
The C-Plan is an effort underway at the DE to streamline the collection process of reports, data and progress for districts/schools.
The hope is that the C-Plan will be a tool districts/schools can use locally, and not just for reporting and compliance to the DE.
Why is the C-Plan needed?Currently, districts/schools are required to
complete 10-15 plans or reports and there is overlap in the requested information.
Consolidation of applications will reduce the burden, costs and time for districts/schools, AEAs and DE.
This effort is in response to requests districts/schools and AEAs have made for several years for a simpler or consolidated planning/reporting process.
Plans Included in the First Release of C-Plan
• Comprehensive School Improvement Plan (CSIP)• Annual Progress Report (APR)• Iowa Core Implementation Plan • District Developed Service Delivery Plan
(DDSDP)• Schools In Need of Assistance/Districts In Need
of Assistance (SINA/DINA) Plan
Additional plans will be considered for inclusion
at a future date.

C-Plan Stakeholders Group Responsibilities
Attend monthly virtual meetings on various topics related to C-Plan to provide feedback to DE Project Team.
Test the C-Plan application during the testing period.
More Information• Public and non-public districts and schools will
use C-Plan.• C-Plan will be available for data entry in June of
2012. • A district’s/school’s initial entry into C-Plan will be
made from scratch. Cutting and pasting from other DE applications will be possible.
• Porting information from year to year is being considered for subsequent years.
More Information• Public reports will be available from the DE
website and will include appropriate redactions of information.
• The Iowa Core Implementation Plan will use the current application for the July 1, 2012 deadline.
• Data elements unique to the Iowa Core Implementation Plan will be added to the C-Plan in December of 2012.
Training for C-Plan• Districts/Schools will be trained on the C-Plan
application in April and May of 2012.So far our ideas include:– Online Tutorials– Linking up with the Fall 2012 BEDS & EASIER training
dates for districts/schools – Is this a good idea?
What other ideas for training for C-Plan would be helpful to districts/schools?
