Several reputed private schools in Dhaka have been accused of cranking up the pressure on the financially stressed parents to pay the tuition fees ahead of a government order on the promotion of students to the next grade.

They fear schools might not promote their children if they fail to clear the fees in full, adding to their stress.

School authorities, however, have denied the accusations labelled against them. They say they are merely telling the parents to clear the fees in order for them to pay the teachers and keep the institutions in operation.
