Shropshire families who send their children to private schools will see their costs rise under changes planned by the Government.
Under new rules, from January 2025 private school fees will no longer be exempt from VAT so families will face an extra 20 per cent on their bills.
“The new rate will though be applied to boarding and lodging fees, but all other goods and services provided for the pupils’ use will still be exempt, as will any goods supplied by another service. Julie said private schools would also have to charge VAT on out of hours activities as well as school holiday clubs, but before and after school childcare would still be exempt.
