Labour U Turns Part 164

I guess all those making an issue of the imminent demise of fee paying schools will be lining up for their slice of humble pie?

''Number of private school pupils rises despite claims families priced out by Labour’s VAT plan''

Good Grief! What a load of lefty propaganda! So in January 2024 the numbers were up by 1500 on the Numbers in January 2023, so why does the article quote a figure of an increase of 20,000 since 2020 an unusual time when we were in lock down, were we involved in a general election in January? What is the relevance! There isn’t any?

You need to show the figures and where you got them from sprot.

''An Institute for Fiscal Studies report published last year suggested that the number of pupils leaving the private sector to attend state schools in response to VAT on fees would be “small”. Michael Pyke, from the Campaign for State Education, said: “According to the IFS, since 2010, private school fees have increased by 50% in real terms but this has not led to any reduction in pupil numbers. And since 2010, the gap in funding between private and state schools has increased to more than 90%''

the lefty IFS spotty?

I guess the only thing missing was proof that a proposed VAT on private school fees is causing closure of fee paying school and a downturn in registrations.
