Since my re-election many constituents have raised with me their concern about the Government's plan to impose VAT on Private School fee's effective January 2025. I know how much this will impact local families and schools. A consultation on the policy is running until 15 September 2024 and I would encourage anyone with concerns to engage here: https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/vat-on-private-school-fees-removing-the-charitable-rates-relief-for-private-schools or by emailing: independentschools@hmtreasury.gov.uk
🗒️ I will be writing shortly to respond to the consultation and will share my letter on here soon.
