How do I view, print or e-mail an IEP?

Viewing/Printing/E-mailing an IEP

Click IEP on the left-hand menu of the assessment screen.

SOLAR takes you to the IEP Module.  

From here you can see a list of the IEPs that have already been entered into SOLAR. IEPs are displayed in “Date Added” order with the most recent at the top.

Note: Depending on how your SOLAR has been set up by your Administrator you will either be able to see all IEP’s or only those pupils that form part of your user profile.



Click in the “Search for a pupil” box on the right-hand side of the screen and start typing the name of the pupil whose IEP you want to view. (You can type in 3 consecutive characters from the name – it does not have to be the first 3 letters).

Click on the pupil’s name and SOLAR will display the IEPs for that pupil.

Click the “Show” button next to the IEP that you want to view.

The top of the report displays the SOLAR logo and your school’s logo (if it has been uploaded into SOLAR by your SOLAR Administrator). If your school is using the standard IEP on SOLAR the focus area, target, strategy, success criteria, evaluation and status are shown. 

The bottom displays the name of the person who produced the file together with the date and time that the file was generated.

Note: Depending on the setting that your SOLAR Administrator has chosen for your IEP print layout will depend on how the data is displayed

At the top of the page you can enter an email address in the “Email To” field and click “Go” to send this file directly to a recipient.

You can click the Print/PDF link save the file as a PDF file by amending the drop-down on print screen to save as PDF.

You can send the file directly to your printer by clicking the Print/PDF button and selecting your printer from the drop-down.

You can change the Text Size on screen by clicking either the +increase or – decrease button.
