Members of the Coordinating Council of Private Educational Associations of the Philippines have filed petitions for tuition hike due inflation and the lingering effects of the pandemic.

"Actually meron pong schools na nag-apply na po ng tuition increase para sa susunod na academic year," COCOPEA Legal Counsel Attorney Kristine Carmina Manaog said in a Super Radyo dzBB interview.

COCOPEA noted that it understands well the financial position of students and parents. But still, the organization explained that schools are also affected by the current inflation and the economic effects of the pandemic. Manaog said that for more than three years, private schools have been unable to increase tuition due to the pandemic.
