What is included in private school fees?

The inclusion of books, stationary, materials, uniform, and food in the term fees for private schools in London can vary by school and may depend on the specific package or program offered.
In some cases, these items may be included in the term fees, particularly for boarding schools where meals and uniforms are a necessary part of daily life. However, in many cases, these items are not included in the term fees and may be an additional cost for families.
It’s important to carefully review the details of the tuition fees and any additional costs associated with attending the school, as well as any financial assistance or scholarship options that may be available. Additionally, some schools may offer used book sales or rental programs to help offset the cost of materials.
Overall, the inclusion of books, stationary, materials, uniform, and food in the term fees for private schools in London can vary widely, so it’s important to check with the individual school to determine what is covered and what additional costs may be incurred.
(Please note that the fees we indicate above exclude VAT (Value Added Tax), currently at 20%. You should expect to pay an additional 20% VAT on all UK private school fees)
