[quote=Anonymous]OP, I am unclear how the extra-time accommodation is being taken away, i.e. through what process. Presumably a properly constituted educational management team met and decided your DC was eligible for accommodations. Only a properly constituted team can meet to take it away. If you disagree with this decision, the team owes you a "prior written notice" which is a written document which describes the action taken and the legal justification for it. Did a team meet and did you get a PWN? How were you told about "he needs to be able to complete the test only 25-50% to get the accommodation" -- in writing? orally? if oral, document by email to the person who told you so that it becomes a written statement. Same for the statement about that he can't use it to check his work. If these are the reasons you are being told that the extra-time is being revoked, then those statements need to be in the Prior Written Notice. The purpose of prior written notice is to make clear the basis for which an action is taken so that you can exercise your due process rights to challenge that actions. When something is being taken away without your consent that is part of an IEP plan, your objection triggers "safe harbor" which means that the IEP plan stays in place without change as the dispute is being resolved.
