JPS management finally backed down and agreed to provide the fee relief we demanded. They clearly realized they could not ignore the financial reality facing our families any longer. We won this fight for our kids and now we must make sure they actually follow through on these concessions.

Petition for changes in fees for Jumeirah Primary School.

Date: 26.03.2020.

Submitting this petition you confirm that you are a parent of JPS student and are agreement that your name will be shown to JPS management as part of petition submission. You agree that by signing this petition you are doing so willingly not influenced or forced by anyone other individual or business.

Our kids are our future and our #1 priority. Their education is one of their most important aspects and here in UAE we bear a massive schooling cost funded by us, employed parents. Tough times are already upon all of us - regular people and parents of 1, 2, 3 or more kids that are in JPS that are already struggling to provide for their families and need to keep their job or have already lost their jobs in turmoil and global recession following COVID-19 pandemic.

All undersigned petitioners are in agreement that required action from JPS management is waiving the remaining school fees for the year, including Term 3 along with next year non-refundable reservations.

We all want to return our kids to JPS back in September as regular and we don't want to explore the options of sending our kids to schools back home for elsewhere where education is either free or affordable but mounting financial pressure may force us to.

Prompt response from parents to this petition is required to support the continuity of our lives in UAE and continuity of school business and other business as well.

Thank you.

JPS management remains deaf to our struggles while families face actual financial ruin. I am currently drafting a formal letter to demand they stop ignoring the reality of this crisis.

Cut the fees. We are suffering and the school is just sitting on the money.

Ridiculous that we have to pay full fees for online learning. The costs are way too high for what we are getting.

The school really needs to step up. My husband just lost his job and we have 3 kids here. This is ridiculous.
