Junior sections of elite private schools still shut
Peshawar: The junior sections of the elite private schools in the provincial
metropolis could not reopen Tuesday as it was decided to keep them shut for
another three days. The step added to the concern of the parents of the
students studying in these institutions that charge them heavily. The senior
sections of the expensive schools were, however, reopened on Tuesday after
remaining closed for almost a month. After getting the information about
reopening of the schools - Beacon House and City School - from different sources
including the school management, the parents took their kids to the schools
where they were told by the security guards that the junior sections had not
been reopened. The parents expressed serious concern over the persistent
closure of the schools that collect hefty amount of money from them in the shape
of huge fees and other charges. A number of parents of kids studying in Beacon
House conveyed their concern and said the schools had been closed
down without any prior intimation. No homework was given to the students before
sending them on leave, they said. The parents were disappointed with what
they called was cold response from the schools management when they tried to get
information about the closure of the schools. "When I contacted the school
management to inquire as to how long the school will remain closed and what will
the students do during this time, I was informed that answer to those queries
have been put on the website of the school," said a father. "Now let me
know, how many of us are computer literate and how many have access to computer.
Isn't it the duty of the school management to inform us about the homework of
the students," said the parent who wished not to be named. The parents
said that no doubt they were concerned about the security of their kids, but
they could not afford a waste of their time as well. They said the school
management should discuss things with them and any decision on the school
closure or security measures should be taken in consultation with
them. One serious matter that the Beacon House School System needs to
focus attention is to form and activate the Parent Teacher Associations (PTA).
These forums have been introduced in the public sector schools to discuss
important matters with the parents. Beacon House, which is the most
expensive school system, does not have any PTA at all and if there is any in
some branches it is not active or autonomous in taking any decision, said
another parent. The local management of the school has no power to take any
decision and follow instructions from their headquarters, he added. The news

Islamabad schools reopened
Islamabad: All the private schools of Rawalpindi and Islamabad reopened on
Tuesday and started full-fledged academic activities. In the wake of
terrorism threats to the educational institutions, the private schools, which
were scheduled to be open on November 1, had extended vacations for almost 10
days. Now after making all necessary security arrangements the educational
institutions have restarted their functioning. The parents have taken a
sigh of relief as the students were facing academic loss. "Now all private
institutions have made necessary internal security arrangements and I am no more
worried about my kids while sending them to schools," said Saima Iftikhar,
mother of two students standing outside a school in sector H-9. An employee of a private school said they had improved the
security system of their school. "The authorities had directed us to
ensure search of all the people entering the school, including teachers and
students, with metal detectors," he said. He said they had made all
necessary security arrangements including installation of walkthrough gates,
CCTV cameras, pickets and deployment of security guards. "We have completed all
the arrangements which were asked by the law-enforcement agencies for the
security of the students studying in our institution," he said. When
asked about the loss of study to students, Attia Imdad, a teacher said the
faculty had given the students enough assignments for home. She said the study
loss was recoverable. The students said they were happy over reopening of
their educational institutions. "I was getting bore and feeling lonely at home,"
said Ahmad, adding, "I feel glad back in school again." I was scared about
terrorist attacks on educational institutions, but now I want to tell those evil
forces that students would defy them and would not allow them to sabotage
educational system in the country" he said. Malik Muhammad Abrar,
president, All Pakistan Schools and Colleges Owners' Association (APSCOA) said
all the private schools in the twin cities remained open on Tuesday. "Parents
and students had been informed about the decision and all necessary security
arrangements to cope with the threat of terrorist attacks have been made," Abrar
said. According to APSCOA president, a high-level meeting was held in
which the managements of schools discussed the security arrangements. The police
have constituted special teams for checking the security arrangements in the
schools. Dawn
