No Learner Should Be Sent Home - Govt

The government has implored schools not to send pupils home for failure to pay the full amount of fees on time but to make payment plans with parents and guardians.

Speaking to State media on Sunday, Primary and Secondary Education Ministry spokesperson Taungana Ndoro said they want all pupils to be allowed to attend classes while parents engage schools authorities on payment plans. Said Ndoro:

All things go ahead as both learners and teachers are ready for the resumption of examination classes.

In terms of school fees, schools are allowed to do payment plans with parents.

We want learners to go back to school first, parents should just engage authorities with their payment plans, but no one should be sent home.
