Who should be held accountable for misleading adverts about schools?
BACKGROUND:
Natural competition and market mechanisms are often sufficient to ensure that parents and students are well-informed.
In
our last poll question, most people say they would choose the schools
that are easily accessible while others preferred schools that will
safeguard the lives of the pupils.
However,
the ability of some schools to inform that their offers are superior to
their competitors are often silent about information which will later
leave the parents or students regretting. In such cases, regulatory
action may be required to ensure affirmative disclosures.
