The article: “Illicit collection of fees does not contribute to improving the quality of education”, highlights the problems linked to the fraudulent collection of fees in educational establishments in the educational province of Funa, Kinshasa. The director of this educational province, Robert Kongi Mugomu, stressed during a rearmament and appropriation meeting that this practice harmed the quality of education.
This meeting, which brought together many heads of establishments, aimed to promote good governance and accountability in the education system. Robert Kongi Mugomu reminded participants of the importance of respecting official instructions and putting an end to the illicit collection of fees, which does not contribute to improving the quality of education.
In addition to these aspects, the interim provincial inspector, Basile Epoka, insisted on other essential directives such as respect for the school calendar, the importance of roaming put in place by the Minister of EPST, Tony Mwaba, and the sanitation service. These roamings will allow the authorities to exercise their authority and sanction offenders.
It is crucial to take firm action to eradicate the illegal collection of school fees, as it penalizes families and limits access to quality education for all. This practice harms parental confidence and compromises the objective of improving education.
The rearmament and ownership meeting in the educational province of Funa represents an important step in the fight against corruption and the improvement of governance in the field of education. It is necessary to put in place monitoring and control mechanisms to ensure that the school fees collected are used wisely for the development of education.
It is therefore essential that those responsible for Funa schools implement official directives to ensure the proper functioning of the education system. This requires transparent management of school fees and efficient use of resources in order to improve the quality of teaching and give all students the best chance of success.
In conclusion, the fight against the illicit collection of fees in educational establishments is essential to guarantee access to quality education for all. Education authorities must take concrete steps to end this harmful practice and promote good governance and accountability in the education system. This is how teaching can truly improve and provide equal opportunities to all students.
