schools are becoming a business place where each and everything became for money. Even for lower classes the fee list nearly reaching 15,000 rupees. schools should be service minded and not for the sake of money. this must be strictly followed by government..... what is your opinion?

Since 20 years ago, school are become business. And this is also a good business. I think nothing wrong with that, as long the quality education is worth and really good when you pay so much fee. Most of these are private school. But we always have government school if you want to get more cheaper fee. I also see big differences between private and government school in my country. In private school the teachers are more responsible with their students development, they really gives many tasks and hope the students can manage themselves to finish the tasks between others extra activities from schools. In government school, usually not many tasks from the teacher, and if you are smart maybe you become smarter, but if you are not, the teacher usually also not give you private attention, it's your own effort to success in your exams, teacher just teach in general. I don't know in your country.

In my university every year, my school increases the tuition fee. I am not against the increase but I want to see the changes in my school for every increase they demand. And that change I want is for the better. Let me give you an example on my university. Today is the start of summer. On April 18 summer classes will start. Supposedly the school shall give first the grades on the 2nd semester before they shall have an enrollment for the summer. But no, they started the enrollment first before they give the grades. That is totally insane because we are all clueless on our grades. Whether we are going to enroll a failed subject this summer. I can't think of any reason why did they do such thing. Maybe they wanted the money immediately. That's why. Hopefully my school officials can think of that. I want my school to be a better school. Not just for me but for every individual enrolled in our school.
