TLDR : Answer Summary
If you cancel your education extension in Thailand, you should receive your passport back on the same day. Typically, you may not need to surrender it at all; officials may simply cancel the extension and hand it back immediately. However, there might be a waiting period where you need to collect it later.

Yes cancelling the 'extension' is cancelling the visa despite the nonsense semantics.

First of all, you cannot cancel an ED visa, you can only cancel and education extension.

Second, you'll receive your passport back immediately. They might not even take it from you other than to cancel the extension and hand it back, or they might make you wait and then call you up to collect your passport.
