School Fees Planning
Average annual fees for day and boarding schools stand at £13,788, according to the Independent Schools Council’s (ISC) January 2012 Census. Educating a child from nursery to university could cost as much as £400,000. Forward planning is essential.
School Fees Costs
The Independent Schools Council (ISC) conducts an annual survey which provides accurate information on the level of school fees charged throughout the independent sector.
Forward Planning
There are a variety of options available if one has time to plan ahead and there is spare income or capital to invest.
Immediate Funding
Forward planning is not always possible. Parents who had not originally intended to send their children to an independent school may find themselves, for reasons beyond their control, in a position where an independent education is necessary.
University Tuition Fees
Students living in England are subject to University Tuition Fees of up to £9,000 per year.
