“No school within the country is to make any exclusive deals with any bookshop, footwear shop or any shop that sells school uniforms.”
That directive was issued today by the Ministry of Education permanent secretary Dr. Brij Lal
“Parents and students are to be given the freedom to choose which shop to buy from which is their right as customers. Moreover, parents and guardians are to be given the liberty to choose shops that are affordable to them,” added Dr. Lal
Head Teachers, Principals and school managements are reminded not to enter into any exclusive deals with any shops.
Ends…
