Lahore: The Standing Committee of the Punjab Assembly has ordered to ensure free education for 10 percent children in all private schools.
The PA Standing Committee has ordered all private schools to ensure free education for 10 percent children studying in their institutions within ten days.
In the meeting of the Standing Committee of the Punjab Assembly, the issue of non-implementation of the condition of free education for 10 percent children in private schools under the law was discussed. The member committee suggested that in this regard, the data of the schools should not be relied upon, but the department itself should admit the deserving children in private schools, so that verification can be done easily.
The chairman of the committee ordered that the licenses of schools that do not implement the decision should be canceled.
On this occasion, the Secretary School Education told the committee that data from all private schools related to 10 percent free education would be collected.
