The right of education for all is laid down in the constitution of Nepal. The government builds schools and then hands them down to the local communities. Because the National Government can not afford to pay the salaries of the school staff these have to be paid by the parents of the pupils in the school fees. The average year salaries in Nepal are € 300,-. People who earn less than that can not afford it to send their children to school.
