Vidyalayas - Fee
Students of the Kendriya
Vidyalayas will be required to shell out a higher tuition fee from next year,
with its board of governors giving in principle approval to a fee hike by over
100 per cent.
This was decided at a meeting of the Kendriya Vidyalaya Sangathan’s (KVS) board of governors, presided over by Human Resource Development Minister M M Pallam Raju, here on Friday.
“We have given in principle approval to the proposal. It was important to strengthen the Kendriya Vidyalayas,” the HRD minister said here on the sidelines of a function. Raju, however, did not clarify the quantum of hike for students of class IX and above. The Kendriya Vidyalayas charge the students between Rs 3,600 and Rs 4,800 annually.
According to sources, the proposal was to hike the fee to about Rs 12,000 per annum. The charges for the school development fund and computers will be hiked. The last fee hike was in 2009.
