As the new school year begins in Algeria, many parents are wondering how the symbolic school fees they pay are being used. These fees, which range from 35 to 55 Algerian dinars, are paid by parents when their children are enrolled in primary, middle, or secondary schools. The Algerian government has established a system to allocate these funds to various activities and services that support students' educational experiences.
According to a table published on the El Chourouk website, the school fees are allocated to several categories. For example, 6 dinars are allocated for correspondence costs in primary school, while 10 dinars are allocated for the same purpose in middle and secondary schools. Additionally, 3 dinars are allocated for accident insurance in primary and middle schools, while 4 dinars are allocated for the same purpose in secondary schools.
The commission de wilaya de solidarité scolaire, a local solidarity fund, also receives a portion of the school fees. The fund's allocation increases with the level of education, ranging from 6 dinars in primary school to 12 dinars in secondary school. Furthermore, a portion of the fees is allocated to support cultural activities within schools, with 6 dinars going to the association culturelle et sportive de l'établissement, which promotes cultural and sports events.
The allocation of school fees also supports sports activities in Algerian schools. For instance, the association culturelle et sportive de l'établissement receives 4 dinars in primary school, 5 dinars in middle school, and 7 dinars in secondary school. Additionally, the Fédération de wilaya du sport scolaire, a local sports federation, receives 4 dinars in primary and middle schools and 5 dinars in secondary school.
