Private School Ordered to Release Student’s Records Amid Tuition Dispute in Morocco

The order, issued earlier this week by the investigating judge, is all the more urgent as the regulatory deadlines for registration, set by the Ministry of Education, have been largely exceeded.

The applicant, who had found himself unemployed following the Coronavirus pandemic, had filed a complaint against the private institution for refusing to grant the leaving certificate. He wanted to transfer his child to a school with affordable fees.

The school was ordered to issue the document concerned. And to deter it from incurring further delays, the judge imposed a penalty of 100 dirhams for each day of delay.
