As per above report, Mr. Mayinkutty of Malayalam News is true on his assumption. Almost all organizations came in the Media as Parents’ advocates &  defenders of this unjustifiable fee hike now  sadly surrendering to their vested interest and going back to their shed deserting the parents in frustration.  

 

However, IISJ Parents voice team is still optimistic to wage a peaceful campaign if  parents are ready to support us. Our team have scheduled to meet Dr. Kareemuddin on next Saturday to know his stand. If you can,  please delay paying your May fee as a part of our objection.  If the majority of parents are ready to participate with our peaceful objection against this fee hike, we guarantee parent victory over this exorbitant fee hike of school.

 

For your information, please note, due to this exorbitant fee hike in IISJ, every month our school is collecting an extra money of  SR. 654,655.00 (See below table, which is showing  the strength of last year and now it has gone up to a total of 11500 students). And Principal is reiterating that this money is only set for the remuneration of salary increase of teachers. Let us wait how much they are going to pay to teachers..! As far as we know, there are 400 teachers… an average increment of SR.1637 (including BS+Acco.+TA+EOSB) can be expected ?

We are not against the development like new premises, reduced class strength, better lab, better library, proper play ground, decent transport, hygiene toilets, shaded play area etc.  We are not against decent salary for the teaching staff.  But why the school authority (Higher Board & Principal..) failed to convince the parents their action plan. Is it required such a huge fee hike for salary increase of teachers. Why not uploading  current financial status of school  in the website?  Why not a PTA and elected Managing Committee for this school, even the Saudi Ministry charter for it.  Despite of our many inquiries like these with Principal and CG, we didn’t get any satisfactory answers.

 

Now it is parents’ choice. Peaceful Objection or Easy Surrender.  If you want a joint effort in objection, please join with us.

Otherwise meet the principal & higher board member as soon as possible, individually or with your family or as a group 2 to 3 parents, before ending up this tempo of fee hike. 

 

Best regards

Assume you are scheduled to meet Mr. Kareemuddin coming sat.
 
I know we all cannot meet or sit together . But it is also a fact that we cannot decide or come to a conclusion on any decison easily over email/internet.
 
1. What is the solution? How to make sure that maximum parents will honour our request not to  pay May Fees? All of us have to make sure that it is implimented in our family/friends' circle.
 
2. Simultaneously we need to explore the possibility of getting connected with the Saudi Edu Ministry and see the legality of this fees hike ( as it is implimented by a highter auth, not an elected committee).
 
3. As political parties and other org are withdrawing (showing their real colour and odour), we need to think aloud and look around widely. All are recommended to put their ideas and suggestions on how to keep on our campaign alive not only on fee hike, but also on returning back the control of IISJ from Embassy at Riyadh to Consulate at JED. In fact it is very important and that is the core issue and the real culprit behind the Fees hike.
 
Dear Parents,
The Road ahead of us seems to be long.Don't be de motivated. All our actions in life are not result- guaranteed, but it need to be result-oriented. Let us do our best to acheive our goal and pray for it.
 
Regards,
Ahmed  P.V

Dear Ashraf Unneen,

Many thanks for Inviting me to this campaign.

I have received all the below email correspondence, and as you are aware i have not paid the Fee for the month of May, instead i personally met with the Authorities at the school and they have instructed me to fill up a "concession form", along with salary certificated (Showing the salary is below SR 2000/- ) attested by the chamber.

I would be more than happy to join any combined or group discussion if so necessary on this regard.

As it is i look forward to the latest update or action taken, further until this i plan not to pay the fee which is already due.

Inshallah, I hope this will be a successful one.

Dear Ashraf Unnen
 
Shall we boycott the Fee Counter ? Please give a clear instruction to the parents, I saw some concrete step makers standing infront of the fee counter (they are making concrete steps every day in group E-mails), we have several examples like "Air India" boycott.
 
Anyhow, I am ready to boycott the fee counter this month,  because I have financial tight.

 

Best Regards,
