Basically, the teachers of educational institutions like these are identified with the notion of "school needs". Whatever it was, the fact is a fact, such a collection of funds is completely illegal. It is worthwhile to understand that the school authorities responsible for the order in the institution do not take measures, but rather give their full consent, arguing that the state does not provide adequate financial support.
Note that this does not justify these actions associated with the plundering of parents. Unfortunately, such extortion of money is quite common in modern schools, but it's all necessary to fight it. To the great joy, many parents stopped talking, laying their money on the table.
Where does the money in the school want to go, what is the charge for the parents?
It is worth noting that in any school establishment there are special nuances, but if you look at things in general, the problem is one:
There is a certain initial contribution of first-graders to the needs of the school
In a number of certain schools, especially those located in elite areas, to arrange their child in school, it is required to pay, as it is called, the entrance fee. But often there are cases when such a contribution only gave the child the opportunity to try himself in the entrance exams. And with a successful surrender - the child enters, and if not, then - alas. As a rule, people who live in remote areas of the school get into a similar situation.
Nevertheless, these measures are completely illegal. If it so happens that there are places in this school, the child is simply liable to take, and without passing any possible test tasks. According to the law, in the school, in primary classes, any examinations are not foreseen, or, more simply, prohibited. Thus, according to the law, if there is no school in the school, then under no circumstances will it be possible to take an additional pupil's pupil.
How can we find out if these places exist? It is worth sticking to such advice, how to apply to the school only in an official way, by writing a request in written form that you ask the first class to enroll your child for training. It is not necessary to conduct any oral conversations and negotiations with the head of the school, as in the case of what, you will not be. Tell the school teachers that you are waiting for the answer in the same written form. In any case, even if the answer turns out to be negative, with this document you will be able to find out if there are free places in an educational institution.
Additional activities
Another popular way to lure money from parents is to add extra classes in the form of various circles and different sections. First of all, it is worthwhile to clarify whether there is a school establishment a license and permits corresponding to the conduct of these classes.
Support in school repairs, as well as purchase of basic necessities for schoolchildren
This method of raising funds from parents is also a very popular list. Go to a meeting or not to go, pay or not, here you can have only advisers and decide only for you. It is important to remember that your child, of course, will not be excluded if you do not surrender money, since no one has such a right. It is worth noting that if you nevertheless decided to donate money, remember that you should not give money from hand to hand. Any educational institution has its own account, to which it is necessary to carry out transfers of a different nature, where you can get a documentary confirmation of your payment.
As for the school, it in turn is obliged by the first demand to provide you with a detailed report of the funds expended. And, any expenditure should be fixed by the commodity and cashier's checks, spending orders, etc. In such a case, such a report is very important, because with his help, parents can control where their money went. If this fact does not occur, it follows that such charges are simply illegal. And you, at the same time, have every right not to surrender money.
Graduation evening and New Year's ball
A lot of topics are currently developed, relatively, what kind of spending includes evenings held in the school. But, it's worth noting, the prom night and next to nothing else. Spending on graduation in grade 11 is simply stunning, beyond explanation. Statistics of the past year in our country suggests that, on average, about ten thousand rubles were surrendered for holding the ball. Everyone agrees that on average, if you think about it, you get a fairly round sum, for which you can play a whole wedding, and quite a decent one.
And the way out of this situation is simple. It is very important to discuss in advance at the parents' meeting the amount that they decided to take, because every parent should take into account the possibilities. For someone, ten thousand is so, a trifle, and for someone it's a whole-state. Perhaps, everyone will have to refuse to hold a water event from fashionable and expensive restaurants, transferring the celebration to a less expensive cafe.
It is important not to forget that you yourself can and have the full right to track the expenditure of your total money. After all, it's better to be safe from dishonest parents, in the pockets of which often a part of the total money is lost.
Teacher's gifts
Gifts for events such as the New Year, Women's Day, the Day of Teacher and the first of September. Almost all schools are arranged so that all teachers celebrate with such significant events. A nice modest bouquet of candies in our days is clearly inappropriate. Today the cost of gifts varies from several thousand and more. But, however that may be, it's up to you. It's a completely voluntary matter.
