Making it difficult to access sound quality education without an alternative of similar quality cannot be the road to improving National Development. Sorry, got this one wrong !!!

If the Govt. is alluding to the fact that education is free they need to be honest and remove the taxation from school education. These tax moves are discriminatory since there are a lot of single parents struggling to provide for their childs education, why does the Govt. feel they can tax education.

VAT on Education, really? Not so sure who in their right mind comes up with such an absurd decision. Though some of us may be able to pay an extra 14%, a leading majority would be unable to do so. This cannot be justified in anyway and I simply cannot begin to understand such a rationale. It's beyond unfair and unethical. Let education remain VAT free!

It is ridiculous of this government to tax education. The parents that sends their children to private institutions are already contributing to our country in various ways.

To add vat on education is to encourage a nation wallowing in ignorance.

Appalling for an already overtaxed economy - Education ought to be free!
You can rule ignorance, you can manipulate the illiterate, you can do whatever you want when a people are uneducated, so that goes in line with corrupt business and corrupt politics. (will.i.am)

Free education is a human right.
