Social Sciences - Education / Pedagogy
Spanish term or phrase: COMPU Comité de Programación y Ubicación
Contexto: comunicaciones sobre incumplimiento en relación a indicadores establecidos por la ley en el ámbito de la Educación Especial (Secretaría Asociada de Educación Especial).

... El PEI debe proveer una declaración señalando el por qué el niño no puede participar en el programa de medición regular del estado o distrito y el por qué la evaluación alterna seleccionada por COMPU es apropiada para el niño.

COMPU es Comité de Programación y Ubicación. Su traducción literal es : Committee for Programming and Placement, pero solo encuentro 3 resultados en google.

Podría ser IPRC según este link: http://www.schooladvocacy.ca/left_level2/special3.html

Muchas gracias! :)

curriculum and placement committee
Explanation:
Programación means course or curriculum planning:

El Programa Educacional Individualizado es preparado por un comité de Programación y Ubicación de Educación Especial (COMPU).

Though you could just say planning.

Ubicación, as you correctly state, is "placement" in an educational context.

agree  Pablo Julián Davis: It seems COMPU's objectives go beyond course of study (on the 'Programación' side), however I think 'Curriculum' works if understood broadly and thus your translation is spot on,
