PRIVATE schools in Singapore will have to abide by a new set of regulations, including one that requires them to have at least S$100,000 in paid-up capital.
Announcing the measures on Friday, the Committee for Private Education (CPE) - formerly the Council for Private Education - said they are aimed at strengthening protection of their students' interests, and at improving transparency.
