James Dyson: Labour is killing aspiration. “What message does 20% tax on private school fees send to ­parents? That if you work hard to give your children the best possible start in life, you will be clobbered for it. This is how aspiration drains away.” cityam.com/james-dyson-la…

Hi The RSC, why are independent school pupils charged more for tickets than state school pupils? We support access for all, but this feels like unfair treatment based solely on school type. Can you explain the reasoning behind this policy?#RSC #EducationNotTax

Jobs at a prestigious Edinburgh private school may be lost as it looks to cut costs. Fettes College said the introduction of VAT on school fees was one of the reasons it took the 'difficult' decision to 'right size our staffing model'.

Beth Rigby Harriet Harman Ruth Davidson 👋 Labour’s Tax on Education = a year of damage and broken promises. ❌ Children pulled from schools they loved ❌ “Every penny will go to state schools” — broken ❌ “Schools can absorb it” — disproved 📉 Five times the predicted number of pupils forced out 🏫 Schools now

And people wonder why some of us happily pay a premium (on which we're now unhappily taxed) to keep our children out of state schools. I've always maintained that Phillipson's primary motivation is control. That concept is the unifying thread running through her entire education

“We all lose from Labour’s VAT on school fees. The idea that imposing the extra cost of VAT on fees will lead to greater equality in attainment & opportunity for pupils-the ideological aim-falls down on two counts It is, in short, a lose-lose situation.” thetimes.com/uk/scotland/ar…

The Chancellor promised "every single penny" from the VAT hike would go on state schools. But the PM says the money has gone on housing. Both *cannot* be true. And state school teacher numbers are down not up! 🤔

You may have no interest in what’s happening with private schooling, you may be ideologically opposed to them. But what you should be interested in is what the ongoing collapses tell you about government’s impact assessments and how it affects you and your families

Thank you to Peter Fortune MP for standing up for Bishop Challoner school which will be closing its doors thanks to VAT on private school fees. It comes as no surprise that Angela Rayner had no words of comfort as parents scramble for school places and staff lose their jobs.

Demonstrable lies from an MP. There are ~580k independent school pupils. to raise £4.7bn would take £8100 in VAT from every single one. Requiring an average annual school fee of £40,500. How on earth are we now living in a society where elected members of parliament can just
