School in Noida charges fee for online classes only to contribute for PM CARES fund

Prometheus School, an IB candidate school in Noida, has been amongst the first in the nation to initiate the directed online learning programs for students ever since schools have been closed.

To aid learning from home and to keep children engaged in a meaningful way, the school is introducing online classroom sessions for children of grade 5, 6 and 7 who do not have access to directed online classroom sessions, as part of an effort to give back to the nation.

While several global platforms have



made online learning courses available for free, owing to the impact of the covid-19 pandemic, Prometheus School has a specific purpose in allocating a fee to their online courses.

The fees will be directed towards the Prime Minister’s Citizen Assistance and Relief in Emergency Situations Fund (PM CARES FUND), or if payments are made towards Prometheus School, the equivalent amount will be donated by their technology partner QA InfoTech Software Services to the PM CARES fund to help battle against coronavirus in India.
