Child Support Agreement for School Fees
Understanding Child Support for School Fees
When parents separate or divorce, they have a legal obligation to provide financial support for their children. This includes covering expenses such as school fees, uniforms, books, and extracurricular activities. Child support agreements can be formalised through a court order, a written agreement, or a binding child support agreement.
Factors Considered in School Fee Payments
When determining the amount of child support to be paid towards school fees, the court considers factors such as the parents’ income, the child’s needs, and the standard of living the child would have enjoyed if the parents had stayed together. It is important to ensure that the child’s educational needs are adequately met through the child support agreement.
