    (b) The commissioner shall serve written notice upon such school indicating that revocation of authorization is under consideration.

    Upon receipt of such notice with the reasons set forth for the consideration of revocation of authorization, a school may file within seven days a written request for administrative review by the commissioner or his designee.

Within twenty-one days after the completion of such review, the commissioner or his designee shall give written notice of the conclusions of the review to the school. A school aggrieved by the decision of the commissioner or his designee may, within fourteen days following its receipt of official notice of the completion and conclusions of such administrative review, appeal, in writing setting forth the reasons thereof, to the board. The board shall hold a hearing within twenty business days following receipt of such appeal to be conducted pursuant to chapter 54 of the general statutes.

Such proceedings shall be promptly instituted and determined.
