Our services
At The School Fees Company, we help parents manage the rising costs of private education with practical financial solutions. From advanced payment plans to unlocking property equity, we provide cost-effective ways to protect against the potential of fee increases and bring peace of mind. Our goal is to make private education more affordable, secure and stress-free for families.
Rising cost of private education
With the introduction of VAT on private school fees, many parents are concerned about the affordability of keeping their children in private education. School fees are already increasing year on year, and VAT has added a further 20% to the total cost.
Protect against future fee increases
One way to safeguard against rising fees and VAT is to lock in today’s prices. Many schools allow parents to pay fees in advanced for several years. Doing so now can help you avoid future inflation ad tax-related increases.
Planning ahead with confidence & without stress
Paying ahead not only provides financial certainty but also peace of mind that your child’s education won’t be disrupted by sudden fee increases.
Use property equity to cover fees
Parents may be able to use equity in their home through a second charge mortgage or a remortgage to fund school fees.
