The school education department is likely to reimburse Rs 2,607 per child to the private schools of the state for admitting the BPL (below poverty line) children under the Right to Education (RTE) Act. Orders in this regard are expected to be released soon, school education department sources informed. 

The RTE Act came into effect in the state on March 26, 2011. In the last session almost 1.5 lakh students were benefitted. 

This academic session, around 2.5 lakh students under the BPL category took admissions in the private schools across the state. The number in the state capital was around 10, 000. After the education department reimburses the fees for the last academic session, it would collect information about the number of students admitted in the current session for reimbursement, sources have said. 

All along, the private school principals were opposed to the BPL children studying in their schools, as they had not been reimbursed the promised amount. 

Also during the beginning of this year, some of the schools opposed the admissions again. 

On February 7, TOI had carried a story as to how the private school principals in the capital were unhappy with the education department which was considering reimbursing about Rs 2,500 to 3,000 per child. The schools that were opposed to such low fee reimbursement includedCarmel Convent BHEL, DPS, World Way School, and St Joseph's Co-ed School among others. 

The principals had then also complained that the format of reimbursement for private schools had not been uploaded on the state school education portal. 

It is learn that about 65% of the amount to be reimbursed to the schools would come from the Centre while the state would pay the remaining 35%.
