Schools in Kerala hint at possible revocation of fee concession

KOCHI: While the discussions on reopening schools are going on, school managements are hinting at the possible change in fee structure by revoking the Covid-time concessions post reopening of schools. Most schools have dropped the annual fee hikes this year and some have even reduced the fees to ease the financial burden on parents considering the pandemic’s impact on the economy.

Managements say that if the schools reopen they will have to cancel all the concessions given due to the pandemic, to meet the running cost.

This will lead to further debates between parents and managements as many parents are holding protests seeking further concessions citing the economic crisis and unemployment. Parents are likely to oppose if the managements revoke the Covid-time concessions. But managements are of the opinion that it will be difficult to reopen the schools if the existing fee relaxations continue.
