Phnom Penh: About 50 guardians of young students joined together to file a complaint at Stung Meanchey police station demanding that the authorities help to find justice after Stamford International closed its doors without any explanation, and after parents and guardians had just paid school fees ranging from $500 to $2000. Prior to going to the police station guardians had gathered outside of the school in Stung Meanchey district at about 7am this morning.
According to guardians of students at the above mentioned school their children had all been studying at the school for 2 to 5 years and nothing exceptional had ever happened before. They said that the standard of teaching and education for their children aged between 5 and 10 years old had always been good.
Yesterday, the 9th of November 2017, the guardians of children had come to collect their children from school as usual and they were not informed of any news by the school. This morning when they escorted their children to school they suddenly found the school had unexpectedly closed, in addition to this 2 other branches of the school, one in Sen Sok district and one in Russey Keo district and had also closed their doors; this being the reason that guardians had gathered in annoyance outside of the school. This alerted the authorities who came and investigated and found that the owner of the school had closed the school and fled. Unofficial sources have said that the Filipino owned had gotten into too much debt.
The gathered guardian continued; the international school had a famous name and had even competed in international competitions in various academic disciplines in many other countries, for example Singapore. They also informed that for half yearly or yearly fees they had to pay for their children from $500 to $2000 according to the age and grade level of their child studying both Khmer and English.
However the children's guardians could not understand what had caused the owner of such a good school to close like this, especially one at which nothing unusual had ever happened before ។
