Dubai's Clarion School has informed existing and incoming parents that it will extend its compassionate discount programme to all families in need of tuition fee relief.

 

As the economic impact of the Covid-19 continues to be felt, Clarion School has decided to extend their tuition relief into the future as long as parents are impacted, said a statement from the school.

 

Clarion School is a leading progressive American school in the UAE and currently offers education for children from PK to Grade 5.

 

"Responding to calls for help from Clarion families, relief packages were put into place as soon as the crisis hit. The impact of Covid-19 on the economy is expected to last well into the future. Facing this, Clarion School is committed to offering this Covid-19 compassionate support as more than an immediate Term 3 tuition relief, and instead will continue relief into the next academic year and for as long as parents need it," the statement said.

 

To date, no child has been removed from the distance learning program due to unpaid fees. The relief from the compassion discount aligns with the school's policy to make distance learning available to all currently enrolled Clarion children until the end of the school year regardless of payment status. Relief packages will extend into the next school year on an as needed basis, it added. -- TradeArabia News Service
