An appeal to private educational institutions

Sir,

All the private educational institutions have closed almost from 13.3.2020. Many schools could not complete their exams as per schedule. It’s two-and-a-half months since the schools are closed.

Now all the private schools are gearing up opening for the next academic year. I have a sincere appeal, rather suggestion for the private educational institutions. Many of them have already collected fees for the month of April 2020 (the month which was completely closed).  I request all the private educational institutions to please start collecting fees from July 2020 by forgoing fees for June (as an adjustment for the fees already collected for April 2020).

This will go a long way in the welfare and difficulties being faced by many parents. The said private educational institutions may give up at least once their regular practice of hike in fee structure and continue last year’s fee amount and charge only for eleven months for this year, without giving any excuses whatsoever in the matter.

Hope my Appeal/Suggestion will be taken in right spirit.
