Despite being full-time servicemen, the team is still shipping and working hard on night and weekends. Progress has been consistent, regardless of the obstacles in our way.

We're planning to run a pilot with a school in India within the next few months. The goal: validate our workflows end-to-end with real students and teachers, and iterate quickly based on what actually helps.

Besides the techy parts, we've been deep in data compliance work—mapping requirements like consent, retention, and auditable change logs—so we can prove to schools that they can trust us IEPPAL to handle their sensitive learning data with the care and responsibility it warrants.

We've also been furthering our understanding of how learning support issues differ in contexts raging from individual, to curriculum, to country.

Short version: we're still here, we're still working and learning, and we're excited about what's to come.

Where we are, where we're going, and where we want to be

Currently Ian and Ansel are beginning their mandatory National Service with the Singapore Army, while Rahul will begin his major in engineering at Imperial College London. Despite this, the team is committed to the long-term success of the project and invites all professionals from the global learning support community to engage with us through our contact page.

We are currently interviewing teachers to understand the pain points they face with their IEP systems and other support systems for students with special learning needs. In the conversations we've had thus far we've learned that teachers desire a balance between using IEPs to drive data-informed learning and building meaningful relationships that empower students to become self-advocates. This approach ensures that while academic progress is tracked, personal growth and independence are also nurtured.

Despite all we've learned so far we know we've only just scratched the surface.

We encourage more teachers to share their experiences and insights to help us create a platform that truly supports both educational and personal development for students with special needs.
