While a student is participating in Special Education, their parents may revoke consent for services at any time. If they do this, the school must send a Confirmation of Revocation of Consent & Prior Written Notice of Termination of Services. Parents may revoke consent via written or oral communication.
If parents revoke consent via written communication, a confirmation will need to be sent within 10 days.
Steps
To revoke consent via written communication:- Parent fills out one of the consent documents in SameGoal indicating they decline consent.
- Mark the consent document complete.
- Create a Confirmation of Revocation of Consent & Prior Written Notice of Termination of Services.
- Enter the date.
- Select written for the type of communication.
- Provide the date of the revocation.
- Fill out the rest of the document.
- Mark the document complete.
If parents revoke consent via oral communication, a written summary will need to be provided to them within 5 days, and a confirmation will need to be be sent within 10 days. If the confirmation is sent within 5 days, the written summary can be included on the form as an attachment.
Steps
To revoke consent via oral communication:- The parents verbally inform the school that they revoke consent.
- Create a Confirmation of Revocation of Consent & Prior Written Notice of Termination of Services.
- Enter the date.
- Select oral for the type of communication.
- Provide the date of the revocation.
- Optionally, add a summary of the oral communication as an attachment.
- Fill out the rest of the document.
- Mark the document complete.
When a parent revokes consent, the student is considered to be no longer participating in Special Education as of the date consent was revoked.
