Families in Gaza are increasingly unable to afford private school tuition, forcing them to send children to overcrowded schools operating from tents with minimal resources, Al Jazeera English reported. The shift reflects deepening financial strain as economic conditions in the territory have deteriorated, leaving parents to choose between private education fees and basic household expenses.
Schools functioning in tents lack adequate supplies, infrastructure, and teaching materials. Tent-based facilities have become the only option for many families unable to cover private school costs amid the territory's economic crisis.
