Amid a nationwide debate on school fee hikes, the government has clarified
its stance on the matter. Contrary to recent claims, the Education Ministry
asserts that schools were not given a “free hand” to raise fees at their
discretion. The Ministry issued a statement affirming that guidelines were
in place to regulate fee structures and ensure affordability for parents.
The clarification comes in response to growing concerns from parents and
education activists about the financial burden imposed by some schools. The
government intends to maintain a balance between sustaining educational
institutions and safeguarding the interests of students and their families.
Further discussions and policy reviews are expected to address this
contentious issue.
