PM Marape said education is a priority area for his Government.
He said the subsidy handed over should help alleviate the financial strain that has been put on parents as everyone prepares for the 2021 academic year.
PM Marape said the K123 million is the first quarter allocation of this year’s Government’s tuition fee subsidy programme.
“This is a quarter of this year’s allocation right as schools start,” he stated.
“We will be transferring funds to all the education institutions, secondary, primary and elementary schools in the country.
