Major Change in the Reporting of Race/Ethnicity on the DRDP Information Pages for Preschool Special Education
Policy Change announced on April 20, 2010 by the California Department of Education, Special Education Division: The Desired Results Developmental Profile (DRDP) Information Page has been modified to collect information about a child’s ethnicity and race for preschool special education. These changes are effective during the Spring 2010 Data Reporting Period with the certification deadline of July 1, 2010.
Revision details are specified in the guidance document, Guide to SEDRS New Ethnicity-Race Fields (April 2010). Refer to SEDRS Import File Structure (Updated April 2010) for the SEDRS field specifications that will be used for data file import.
Please use the revised Manual and Information Page dated April 2010. Please discard the previous version of the Information Page.
Desired Results Developmental Profile (DRDP) Instruments
The DRDP instruments are used to assess all preschool-age children with Individualized Education Programs (IEPs).
- Children enrolled in preschool special education after September 1, 2009 are assessed with the DRDP access.
- Children enrolled in special education who were assessed with the PS DRDP-R prior to September 1, 2009 will continue to be assessed on the PS DRDP-R until they exit from preschool special education.

Many assessors who are experienced in using the PS DRDP-R would like to increase their knowledge of the DRDP access, either to complete the instrument in their role as a special educator, or to collaborate with the special educator in their role as child development teacher. This chart provides an at-a-glance comparison of these two instruments.
