In order to prevent schools from charging exorbitant fees, Gujarat Government on Tuesday announced rules for primary, secondary and higher secondary schools.
In the recently concluded session of the Assembly, the State Government had passed the Gujarat Self-Financed Schools (Regulation of Fees) Bill, 2017, fixing the fees for primary schools at Rs15,000 per annum, Rs25,000 annually for secondary and Rs27,000 per annum for higher secondary. The new fee structure would be adhered to by schools offering Gujarat State Education Board curriculum, CBSE, ICSE and International Baccalaureate boards.
