The Administrative Court of Finland dismissed the appeal regarding the collection of the first semester tuition fee from a parent and their child. Although the parties had ceased formal studies in January 2007, they had attended one or two classes during the spring semester. The court ruled that the school director could legally collect the fee due to the operational costs of organizing instruction, including staff and facility expenses. Consequently, the decision to charge the fee was upheld as reasonable and necessary.

Valittaja oli aloittanut alaikäisen lapsensa kanssa opiskelun musiikkiopistossa syyslukukaudella 2006. He olivat 24.1.2007 ilmoittaneet lopettavansa opiskelun. Kertomansa mukaan he olivat käyneet yhden tai kaksi kertaa tunnilla kevätlukukauden aikana. Opiston lukukausimaksu perittiin kahdessa osassa siten, että 1. erä oli suoritettava tammikuussa ja 2. erä maaliskuussa. Valittaja oli velvoitettu suorittamaan musiikkiopiston lukukausimaksun 1.erä omalta ja lapsensa osalta. Muilta osin heidät oli vapautettu maksuista.

Hallinto-oikeus katsoi ottaen huomioon opistolle opetuksen järjestämisestä aiheutuvat henkilöstö-, hallinto- ja toimitilakulut, että opiston rehtori on voinut päättää periä valittajalta ja tämän lapselta lukukausimaksujen 1. erän. Rehtorin päätöstä ei ollut syytä muuttaa.
