The Committee for Fixation and Regulation of Fee of Private Schools had directed all the Private Schools to file information about their fee structure by January this year, however, the Committee had received information from Private Schools Association for granting extension in time period for submission of information citing reason that the schools are re-opening after a long spell of closure due to Covid-19 and the School managements are busy in preparations for opening of schools and having in place the SOPs.
The date for submission of files was then extended up to 22 March. Next time as well, Private Schools Association requested for extension citing in view of the busy schedule of school management, viz, conducting of examination etc.
The time period for submission of files related to fee structure was again extended up to May 10.
Administrative Officer of the Committee for Fixation and Regulation of Fee of Private Schools, Nazir-ul-Hussain Shah told news agency that the individual schools and the Private Schools Associations once again approached the Committee for the extension of date of submission of files for fixation and regulation of fee, citing the reason of lock down in view of huge surge in Covid-19 positive cases in Jammu and Kashmir.
He said that the chairperson has considered the matter and has approved the request of extension in the date of submission of files for fixation and regulation of fee of Private School till 30 Jaune, 2021.
“ All the private schools are directed to submit the files by or before 30 June this year.”
Pertinently, the government appointed Committee for Fixation and Regulation of Fee of Private Schools is there to ensure that private schools don’t indulge in commercialization of education and undue profiteering.
