Advisory for Private Schools and Parents of School going Children dated 19/05/2020

Advisory to Private Schools and Parents

Government of Jammu and Kashmir, Directorate of School Education Jammu has issued an advisory for private schools and parents of school going children


Due to COVID-19 outbreak, the Jammu and Kashmir administration have ordered to close the educational institutions till May 31st. All educational institutions have promoted junior school students to the next classes based on their past performance. On administration's directions all educational institutions in the UT are running distance classes via whatsapp/video lectures/google classroom etc. in lock down.

Usually the admission process starts in April, but due to the closure of institutions it didn't. Now most of the private educational institutions in the UT are now sending the annual fee structure to parents.

The private educational institutions are demanding fee from parents for lock down period. They are now making calls to the parents to deposit full fee (annual Fee + Fee of first Quarter i.e., April to June 2020 from institution designated banks. 

The demand of full fee deposit for lock down period is a new concept for parents, but the increase in annual fees structure by private educational institutions is not new. Every year the private educational institutions’ management adds new headers and increases the fee structure such as - Onetime fee, Annual Fee, Transport Fee, Computer Lab Fee, Smart Lab Fee etc.

The fee structure of private educational institutions is so high that it is becomes difficult for common people to educate their children in private educational institutions. Common people are compromising their household budgets to provide a good education to their children. They fail to understand the reason behind the undue annual fees charged by private educational institutions and inappropriate hike in fee.

 Many worried parents complained that the fee structure offered to them by private educational institutions is unbearable. Parents want to protest on the streets, but are unable to do so due to the COVID-19 lock down.

 In 2019, parents, whose children were studying in private educational institutions, protested against the annual increase in fees. The parents alleged that the students were forced to buy stationery, books and uniforms, fancy dress for Annual Day, Republic Day, Independence Day, etc from vendors allegedly appointed by the school administration.

 Taking a strict note, the administration of the of Jammu and Kashmir, Directorate of School Education Jammu has issued an advisory for private educational institutions and parents of school going children. In the advisory, the private educational institutes are directed to charge only Tuition Fee for the COVID-19 lock down period.
