53 schools apply for
tuition increase |
|
By James Konstantin Galvez, Reporter
AROUND 50 private elementary
schools in the National Capital Region (NCR) have already filed
their application with the Department of Education-NCR to increase
their tuition fee this coming school year.
“We expect any increase in that
range since the school owners know that any increase beyond that
would result to a decline in their enrolment,” said DepEd-NCR
Director Teresita Domalanta, adding that the tuition fee increase
may range from 2 percent to 10 percent this school year.
