Govt asks schools to refund fees if admission cancelled

New Delhi, Feb 11 (PTI) Parents seeking their wards' nursery admission can heave a sigh of relief as the Government today issued a circular directing all schools in the capital to refund fees paid to them in case if parents wish to withdraw or cancel the admission.

The circular issued by the Directorate of Education (DoE), Delhi, said there have been several complaints by parents regarding non-refund of fees and other charges by unaided recognised schools in the event of cancellation of admission.

"If any fee is collected from the parents or guardians of a child, whose admission is cancelled ..., the entire free except registration fee charges shall be refunded," said the DoE order.

However there are schools where the school authority & management has refused to refund the fee. I am talking about St. Helena's school at Pune, Maharashtra where I took admission for my child for the year 2011-12 and paid a sum of Rs. 29100. I have put in an application for cancellation of the admission about 10 days back and have been following up diligently for the refund. The Principal and the Vice Principal have said that they is no question of a refund beside the harassment and the impolite attitude from the Principals office one Mrs. Senji. Wonder how such human beings could be role models to children. I need someone to help me on this one. It is a huge sum and I need justice. Would somebody guide me how to proceed on this. Besides there are several other parents who have had their entire fee forfeited. Please help.
