Cooperation is required between parents and school management for the proper education of children, said a director of Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE), on Thursday.

His statement came amid growing discontent among parents of various private schools over, what they claim, irrational fees charged even during the outbreak of COVID-19.

It has been observed that several schools are charging fees other than tuition fees which are not applicable as the schools are closed and due to lockdown with limited virtual classes taking place.

MP Locket Chatterjee and members of the teachers’ cell of the BJP demonstrated outside the state education department office, demanding that private schools be asked not to charge any fee for the entire lockdown period that began in the middle of March.
