UK boarding schools fee rise likely

By ITS Education Asia

Unless there is a sudden change of direction at the UK government Treasury, many private schools in the UK may be forced to raise fees shortly  The government is insisting that teacher pension contributions by schools are raised by over 40%. Larger schools or those with well-funded reserves may absorb the cost but smaller schools and those on fine margins may have little choice but to raise fees. If you are looking at choosing UK schools this year, ask the question about teacher pensions and fees.
