The Ministry of Education (minedu) announced that face-to-face classes already have a start date and will start in March, after studying for almost two years under the distance system, due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Facing the return to the classrooms, we tell you in this note which are the private schools with the highest monthly payments and enrollment.
According to the 2022 College Guide of the Education for the Future Group (GEF)75% of private educational institutions plan to charge the same pensions that they had before COVID-19, but 10% plan to increase them.
Given this scenario, the GEF estimates there will be a lower return of students to the classrooms of the private schools.
In his report, he highlights that only 15% of the 250,000 students, who had to migrate to public education between 2020 and 2021, will return to private schools. In other words, only 37,000 students will return.
