Published On : June 2, 2023

One of our recent project was the outstanding fee collection system for a leading school group.

Outstanding school fee collection is a major challenge for many schools. Here we are sharing few factors that can lead to non payments and how it can be addressed.

Parents may be struggling financially.

The cost of education has been rising steadily in recent years, and this has put a strain on many families' budgets. As a result, some parents may be unable to afford to pay their children's school fees on time.

Parents may not be aware of the school's fee structure.

Schools often have complex fee structures, and it can be difficult for parents to keep track of all of the different fees that are due. This can lead to parents missing payments or paying the wrong amount.

Parents may not be able to make payments in person.

Many schools require parents to pay their fees in person, which can be inconvenient for parents who work during the day or who live far from the school.
