GB News: Rachel Reeves 'vastly underestimated' scale of parents' rebellion over school VAT raid
Chancellor Rachel Reeves faces criticism for underestimating the financial impact of parents prepaying private school fees to avoid a new VAT. Over £515 million was paid in advance before the tax took effect, surpassing Treasury expectations and highlighting a significant behavioral shift among parents.
The government's plans to tax prepayments were based on a projected £450 million in upfront fees, but actual figures suggest a much higher total. Critics argue that this miscalculation reflects broader issues in the independent school sector, with more students leaving private schools.
