Moe Set Up A Committee To Put Regulations For Increasing Arabic And Foreign Private School Fees

09 January 2016 Kuwait
Ministry set up committee to regulates private schools’ fees increase a senior ministry official announced yesterday.

The committee, which was formed by Minister of Education and Minister of Higher Education Dr Bader Al-Essa, is scheduled to finish its mission by the end of the month, said Dr Haitham Al-Athari. Its final recommendations will be applied on all private schools in Kuwait, said Athari, who charges the committee.

Any school that fails to adhere to those recommendations, particularly fails to obtain permission from the ministry before increasing fees will be subjected to punitive measures, Athari said, adding that termination of the school’s license is the maximum form of punishment that could be used in this case.

The senior official urged parents to inform the ministry with any cases in which schools increase their fees, and provide evidence, adding that each complaint will be dealt with confidentially. The ministry has recently informed a private school to reverse a 19 percent increase in fees after receiving complaints from students’ parents, Athari added.
