Using ICF-CY in order to certificate competencies of pupils with disability: A proposal founded on the Evidence Based Education perspective

Lucia Chiappetta Cajola, Amalia Lavinia Rizzo

The paper discusses, on one hand, the importance to define the competencies that pupils with disability must achieve within the Individualized Educational Plan, on other hand, the difficulty to attest this achievement in relation to the model recently proposed by Italian law. Starting from the results of an ex-ploratory research founded on the Evidence Based Education perspective in the field of special education, this study discloses the possibility of using Core Set based on international Classification of Functioning, Disability and Heath for Children and Youth (ICF-CY) and related assessment tools.
