Whether to pay liquidated damages depends on the terms of the contract signed by both parties. The Ministry of Education stipulates that no off-campus educational institution may deduct or overcharge parents' tuition fees in any name, and parents have the right to choose whether to attend or not. Because of different institutions, each contract is different, and the situation of paying liquidated damages is different. A contract is an agreement between civil subjects to establish, change and terminate a civil legal relationship.

People's Republic of China (PRC) Civil Code
