Parents in the port city are expressing outrage over private schools’ "illegal” fee hikes, as students continue their summer vacations, according to a report by Geo News. It has been reported that these schools have raised tuition fees by a significant 30% to 40% in violation of regulations.
Sources reveal that private schools are directly selling textbooks and copies to students, despite a ban on this practice. The schools allegedly claim to have obtained permission from the provincial education department to justify their unauthorized fee increase.
Parents are expressing concerns about the additional financial burden imposed by the extra fees and the cost of books and uniforms imposed by private schools.
