We currently do not charge VAT on our camps and courses and the fees on our website do not include VAT.  If that exemption is removed, we will charge VAT on our fees.  VAT will then be payable in addition to our fees at the same times as our fees are due for payment.  The VAT amount will be clearly stated on our invoices. Providing the best education and experience at an accessible price for our families remains our top priority. We have already engaged with our advisors and the Independent Schools Bursar’s Association on this and will benefit from the findings of the various school associations to ensure that we can provide affordable options for parents. We are committed to exploring all possibilities to keep our camps and courses manageable for our families.
