Abstract:	A team from Sindh Education Foundation (SEF) was prevented from entering a school for a routine visit by the Chairperson of the School Committee. He behaved aggressively and refused to cooperate. The team reported the matter to Anita Ghulam Ali, MD SEF. She called an urgent meeting of senior officials of the project, Technical Coordinator Mashhood Rizvi and Coordinator Jamil Adil. At the meeting Jamil Adil said that the project had completed its four-year subsidy period, and the schools were running with a monthly deficit as their monthly income was below the expectation of the project. The schools were demanding permission to utilize the endowment amount to bear immediate expenditures. Utilization of the endowment was prohibited as per project policy and the government would not allow it either. The current situation had emerged after the schools' demand was rejected.
