Private schools managements in the city have alleged discrimination by the Education department towards them. The management committee of private schools say the Department is strengthening enrolment in government schools while tightening noose over the private ones.
The management committees said no written guidelines on whether teachers could come to schools or not were received by them but in routine, teams of the Education Department visited schools to check and stop teachers from coming to schools.
Government schoolteachers, on the other hand, have been reporting on duty and are visit door-to-door to enrol students.
Principals of an aided private school near Samrala Chowk said teachers in government schools were going to schools, taking online classes, visiting door-to-door to encourage parents to enrol their kids in government school while private schools had been subjected to restrictions.
