Original Note:
The post is incorrect. In the UK, VAT has never been charged on education. So, charging it on private school fees is a new tax, not the removal of a "tax break" as claimed. Similarly, if VAT were charged on children's clothing, it would be a new tax, not removal of a tax break. https://monitor.icef.com/2024/08/uk-confirms-that-value-added-tax-will-now-apply-to-private-school-fees/
