Problem with the school fees
The issue which widely discuss in the radio station is about the school fees. I listen to it because I tune to radio station every morning.
A lot of parents called in to the radio station to voice out their opinion or experience. I found that they are so many extra fees being imposed to the parents. One of the parents told that the school fees being imposed by the school is around RM300+ for a student. She has three children studying in that school, so it had brought a burden to her family.
Principals and headmasters have been advised by Education director-general Datuk Alimuddin Mohd Dom not to push parents for the payment of additional fees.
Education deputy director-general (Schools) Datuk Noor Rezan Bapoo Hashim said these fees cannot be simply imposed on parents ?principals must be able to rationalise why they imposed them. This is why it is important for parents to attend PTA meetings.
So, the parents are advisable to consult to the school in solving the problem.
