It has been shown in various research contexts that action programs do not always work as they should, even though there are clear guidelines on how the action programs should be designed and used. The aim of this study is to illustrate which processes that occur before an action program as well as how these processes lead to action that will give the student the support he or she needs. Through qualitative interviews with eight teachers, I have tried to answer the questions that I created. I have tried to answer my research questions that I have made based on the purpose. The questions are; What type of inquiry will be done if a student risk to not reach the knowledge goals? How will the inquiry support the action program? In what way does the action program support pupils in special needs? The result of my survey show that the survey being done for an action program is very individual-focused and that the mapping rarely shows on the teachers role or school environment to students who fall into special needs. It also shows that teachers find it difficult to identify the students who have general learning difficulties. It also emerged that there are teachers who do not believe that the action program helps students in need of special support, that educators believe that it depends on many different factors if the action program becomes to support the students or not. One factor are including the teachers themselves. Conclusions to be drawn from the survey is such that it is the pedagogue attitude toward the action program that governs whether it helps the student in need of special assistance or not. A further conclusion is that the action programs structure are similar to the formative assessment within the assessment theory, assessment for learning.
