Dear all
Can anyone refer me to some evidence that would support a prelingually
deaf student's request for extra time in exams? A student here has been
refused extra time because his audiologist states ' he is fortunate
enough to have been able to develop good speech and language from
childhood.'
The student has had extra time in all school exams and will appeal the
decision. I am inclined to support him but would like some supporting
evidence in light of the audiologist's assessment.
Any thoughts?
