Some parents in Ibadan have expressed concern about the payment of third term fees being demanded by private school owners over virtual learning for students.
Some of the parents, who spoke with the News Agency of Nigeria in Ibadan on Thursday, said that some schools are demanding up to 90 per cent of the full tuition fees for third term learning online.
“But I feel that these teachers have family and so they should be supported. The school is asking for about 30 per cent payment of the third term and I feel we should pay so the school can, in turn, pay the teachers,” Babalola said. “For instance, I have two children who are given assignments and upon returning from office, I am faced with ensuring the children do the work sent.
Adeyemi said: “If it is going to be a virtual learning and teaching, parents need to negotiate with the school on how to pay since students are not actually in the school. He suggested that they could decide to pay the full amount if this was what parents would do to appreciate where their children would be taught to do well in life.
