Schools without foreign students missing out on revenue

From Morning Report, 6:46 am on 13 August 2021

The government is worried children at schools that don't enrol foreign students are missing out. It says most schools with paying international students are high-decile and their fees - $150 million dollars each year - are used to support Kiwi kids' education. It says children don't get the benefit of that money if they attend schools with few or no foreign students. RNZ's education correspondent John Gerritsen has the story.
