Original Note:
Not charging VAT on Private School fees did not represent a “tax break”; education has never been subject to VAT until now (every other type of private education is still exempt). The UK is one of the only countries on the European continent to charge VAT on education. https://www.tax.org.uk/tax-treatment-of-private-schools-an-explainer
