Helping you to plan for and fund the cost of private education, your financial plan will incorporate strategies aimed at optimising your resources while minimising financial strain.

The number of pupils attending private school has steadily increased over the past decade, with a record 544,316 pupils now attending 1,388 Independent School Council (ISC) member schools across the UK, the highest level since records began in 1974[1].

While the cost of tuition fees can vary widely depending on the school and location, the average term fee for attending private school has risen 5% per year since 2000. Sending your child to a private school as a day pupil costs, on average, £20,586 per year, rising to £36,000 for pupils who board[2]. However, fees at some private schools can be as much as £46,710 annually.

Key tax-efficient solutions

ISAs

Individual Savings Accounts (ISAs) can offer a tax-efficient way to pay private school fees. An ISA is a tax-efficient investment vehicle that enables parents to put aside a certain amount each year without incurring any income or capital gains tax (CGT) on the interest or investment returns earned on the savings.

If each parent contributes their annual allowance of £20,000 a year from the child’s birth, this could accumulate to a tax-free sum of £298,000 by the time the child is 11 years old, based on 5% annual growth.* Withdrawals from an ISA are tax-free, so parents can extract funds as needed to pay for school fees without incurring any tax liability, or invest in other options, such as stocks and shares.

*These figures are examples only and they are not guaranteed – they are not minimum or maximum amounts. What you get back depends on how your investment performs, and the tax treatment of the investment.
