| We have ruled that the school-student relationship is contractual in nature. Once admitted, a student's enrolment is not only semestral in duration but for the entire period he or she is expected to complete it.[111] An institution of learning has an obligation to afford its students a fair opportunity to complete the course they seek to pursue.[112] Such contract is imbued with public interest because of the high priority given by the Constitution to education and the grant to the State of supervisory and regulatory powers over all educational institutions.[113] | |||||
