Navigating the financial landscape of independent education can be challenging, especially with the upcoming VAT changes on school fees. The Bursary & Scholarships Pavilion at this year's Independent Schools Show is here to help.
This dedicated space offers parents invaluable insights into the financial support available from leading independent schools. From bursaries to scholarships, our expert talks programme provides the answers you need to make informed decisions about your child’s education.
Key Topics Covered:
