It is 19 thousand dirhams ... and the school is refusing to register it for the current academic year

“Abu Zeid” is unable to pay his son’s school arrears

The father of the student (Zaid - eight years) is unable to pay his son’s study arrears for the last academic year, which amount to 18,825 dirhams, as the school administration refuses to register his son for the new academic year due to non-payment of school arrears, and the student’s family appeals to the good people and those with merciful hearts Lend a helping hand to him.

Abu Zayd said to Emirates Today: “I have been looking for a job opportunity for more than five years in my country and I did not succeed. Then a friend of mine residing in the country told me that one of the private schools in the Emirate of Abu Dhabi is looking for teachers for the Arabic language, and I immediately sent My CV via e-mail, and after a month had passed I came to the country to conduct the interview and underwent many tests, and was accepted as a teacher of the Arabic language in the school.

He added, "I brought my small family, consisting of my wife and my child (Zaid), to live with me, and the matters of our life were very stable, as my employer provided housing and paid part of the costs of my son's studies (Zaid)."

He continued: “In March of this year, I was surprised that the school administration in which I work reduced the number of teachers due to the (Corona) pandemic, as I was among those who were chosen, and after the end of the last school year, the school administration told me that I could not obtain my son Zaid’s certificate because of the arrears. My school fees, and the financial deduction that the school used to pay because I work there has been canceled.

He added: “I could not pay the amount accumulated on my son, which amounted to 18 thousand and 825 dirhams, since I was previously working with a salary of 8,000 dirhams, 3500 dirhams are deducted monthly in bank installments, and the rest goes to the expenses of daily life.”

He continued: “I knocked on many doors of charity and charities to extend a helping hand and break my distress in paying the school arrears that fall on me, but I did not succeed, and now I can never let my son continue his new academic career, or even take a study certificate to continue his education in my country, Jordan, Until I pay the tuition arrears of 18,825 dirhams, and I fear that the new school year will be wasted on my child. ”

“Abu Zeid” used to work as a teacher, and the school dispensed him due to “Corona”.

“Abu Zeid” knocked on the doors of charitable societies to pay school arrears, but he was unsuccessful.
