ABUKHAIRENI, Dec 30 - Previously many students of this region were compelled to go to other cities of the country for higher level education after finishing school. The students of Abukhaireni have been relieved of this problem after +2 education was started in Ramshah Secondary School in Abukhaireni with the efforts of the guardians of the local students here.
"This school has now become a good example of the +2 level of education in the whole district compared to other private schools having this level of education", says Rishi K.C, the chairman of this high school.
The school, which was started with the initiation of just three students, now has more than 200 students, highest among any other high school in the district. The +2 level was introduced in this school three years ago with the financial assistance of Rs. 4,00,000 contributed by Drinking Water Consumers Committee of this district and Rs. 3,00,000 collected from among the local guardians of this region. As per stipulations of the District Education Office any school wishing to start the +2 level of education must make a deposit of 7,00,000.
It is learnt that +2 classes are being conducted during the morning while secondary level education during the afternoon. Eight separate teachers have been employed to teach the +2 students alone, and the tuition fees collected from these students go to pay the salary of these teachers. The money collected from admission fees has been utilised in the construction of two new buildings with four and six rooms respectively. Education, humanities, and management streams of education are being provided at this higher secondary school presently.
It is learnt that the students of this region are very happy to get this education without having to leave their home district. Not only local students, but students from as far as, Chyangli, Manakamana, Deurali, Dhuwakot in Gorkha, and Mugling in Chitwan have been coming to this school for higher education.
Initially Rs. 25,000 charged from the students as admission fee has now been reduced to Rs. 15,000. "During the initial stages the management was in dire need to put the school into motion, and now that it is in motion and the condition of the school has improved, we can charge less as admission fees", says K.C.
The students have even been demanding that concerned authorities should start the Bachelor’s level of education in this school so that they can be free from the hassle of going to the main cities such as Kathmandu, Pokhara, and others for graduate level studies. It is learnt that more than tuition fees the cost of food and lodging is very high in these cities.
