Al-Tawil Discusses Premiums and School Costs
The article discusses the significant increase in tuition fees for private and Catholic schools in Lebanon for the 2026-2027 academic year, with proposed hikes ranging from 15% to 30%, and an average fee of approximately $4,000. This rise is attributed to higher costs of salaries, fuel, and transportation, placing a heavy burden on Lebanese families, especially in light of the economic collapse and declining purchasing power. The article also raises concerns about transparency and accountability in school budgeting processes, calling for measures to prevent unjustified fee hikes. Additionally, it highlights the growing number of students migrating to government schools due to the rising costs and the public schools’ delayed ability to accommodate the increasing student numbers.
