GB News: Camilla Tominey GRILLS Education Secretary over private school tax raid after she says it was 'worth it': 'You can’t be happy with school closures!'
Education Secretary Bridget Philipson defended the government's private school tax policy amid criticism over 31 school closures. She argued that the VAT increase on private school fees, aimed at funding state education improvements, was justified despite the negative impact on some schools.
Philipson acknowledged the closures but emphasized that private schools are businesses that make independent decisions. She claimed the policy would ultimately benefit state education and increase funding for schools and affordable housing. Critics argue that the closures disproportionately affect students with special educational needs.
