Which of the following best describes who must review an assessment report besides the parent and primary caregiver?

• A. The child\'s pediatrician
• B. The child\'s teacher
• C. The licensing agency
• D. The person responsible for the assessment program or a designated employee who meets the qualifications

Answer: (D)

Internal quality control requires that an assessment report be reviewed not only by the parent and primary caregiver but also by the person responsible for the assessment program, or by a designated employee who meets the qualifications. This review ensures the report is accurate, complete, and interpreted correctly before it’s shared or used to guide decisions, providing independent oversight and helping protect the child and family by upholding standards and confidentiality. While a pediatrician or teacher may use or receive the information, they are not the mandated internal reviewer for the program, and the licensing agency is not the designated internal reviewer in this process.
