MANILA, Philippines— Senator Francis “Chiz” Escudero has asked his colleagues to pass a bill that prohibits the “no exam, no policy” in all educational institutions, calling it the “cruelest of fines.”
Escudero sponsored on the plenary on Wednesday Senate Bill No. 1359 which prohibits educational institutions from imposing any policy that prevents students from taking exams or any form of educational assessment due to outstanding financial or property obligations such as unpaid tuition and other school fees.“By any moral yardstick, forcing a student to forfeit an exam is the cruelest of fines.
The proposed law also prohibits educational institutions from requiring students to secure permits before assessment, compel student or parents to pay a fine before assessment, and impose fines, penalties or interests higher than six percent per annum computed from the date of the examination until the date when such obligations are settled.
