In accordance with part B of the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA), the New Mexico content standards with benchmarks and performance standards for braille literacy were developed to provide students in grades K-12 who are blind or visually impaired equal access to literacy instruction and materials. Braille standards outline the sequence of skills to be developed to a level of proficiency at each grade level, prerequisite to instruction in the next grade level. This rule also establishes requirements for teachers of students who are blind or visually impaired for whom braille instruction and the use of braille in learning are required. This includes both specialists teaching braille and other teachers in the primary education setting.
