Principal Secretary Aradhana Shukla has once again clarified that compliance with the mandate issued by the state government regarding fees will be ensured.Transportation will not be charged. Last year fees will be charged in schools. Apart from this, he has also made it clear that employees working in government, non-government or private sector offices who are getting monthly salary, should pay one month’s fee to the school. Parents who receive regular salaries are also not depositing fees in schools, while the government has ordered schools to pay salaries to teachers and non-teaching staff. Therefore, parents who are able to pay monthly fee and pay income tax, will be processed to deposit monthly fee on priority basis.
Apart from this, parents who are unable to deposit the fee, will give a written application to the manager or Principal of the concerned school, stating the circumstances, reasons for non-deposit of fee. The school management will consider this application positively and will arrange to charge in easy installments. Even after this, if the parents are not able to collect the fee, then the student will not be denied online class nor will his name be deducted from the school. If any party is offended at any particular point in relation to the fee, then the Uttar Pradesh self-funded independent school (Fee Act) 2018 can apply before the District Fee Regulatory Committee constituted under Section 8 (1). The district committee will take a decision on the application in a week.
