[quote=Anonymous]Sounds like BS to me. We were told this too. Then when DS asked for a reduction from a teacher, the teacher said No, it wouldn't be fair to the other students bla bla bla. Our consultant wanted to maintain good standing with the school so didn't push it, though consultant knew how to, so the best we got was that during times of heavy workload DS could have a homework reduction. I can't remember how it was phrased--maybe max 30 min in math, or per subject. Subsequently it fell by the way side as it seemed a less pressing need and I didn't want to fight. The special ed people are afraid to put something in writing that would set them up for conflict with teachers, and don't want to explain to teachers that it's the law to follow the IEP. So they put it on the students, do a song and dance about teaching self-advocacy, then the student tries, and the teachers tell them No. [/quote]
