Regulatory Body For Private Schools

Punjab government has failed to establish a regulatory body to control the fee structure of private educational institutions, which are looting the people with both hands. People prefer to send their children to private educational institutes due to higher standard of education and facilities. And that is the reason the private educational institutes charge higher fees from parents for imparting quality education. ‘The News’ learnt that some elite class schools are taking more than Rs50,000 admission fee and Rs6,800 monthly fee from nursery and Class I students. The reliable sources said that government, feudal lords and private schools are working in tandem as they want to keep the common man away from quality education and that is why they were not in favour of any regulatory body to control the fee structure of private educational institutes.
All Pakistan Private Schools Management Association Central Chairman Adeeb Jawdani told ‘The News’ that Punjab government should establish a body to regulate fee structure to end class distinction. He admitted that elite class schools were creating class difference among people. Not only private schools but Army Public Schools as well are getting higher fees from civilians, which was due to low educational standard in government schools in the province. “Education is the first pillar of any society, but unfortunately government is not taking any kind of steps for improving its standard,” he added.
 There are 80,000 private schools in Punjab and the number is increasing day-by-day.
Executive District Officer (EDO) Education Malik Muhammad Ashraf said private institutions are looting people. “We have received hundreds of complaints in this regard. Punjab government is working to establish a body to regulate fee structure of all private institutions. The fee structure of all private schools would be controlled and equal. After establishing governing body, we would take strict legal action against violators, who would charge extra money from parents,” he added. THE NEWS.
