VAT
Q: What changes are being made to VAT on private school fees?
A: The government has confirmed that the full 20% VAT rate will be applied to private school fees, excluding the provision of education in a nursery class, starting in January 2025.
Q: How will Sherfield School address these changes in the short term?
A: Due to robust governance and financial management, we are pleased to announce that we will protect our families from any fee increases until September 2025. This reflects EiM’s commitment to supporting our community and minimising disruption to our pupils' education. Our goal is to ensure that we provide the highest quality education while also considering the financial well-being of our families.
Q: What will happen to school fees for the 2025-2026 academic year?
A: Following detailed analysis and forecasting, our school fees for the 2025-2026 academic year will increase by 12%. This includes:
- 3% linked to inflationary costs (e.g., minimum wage and national insurance adjustments).
- 9% for a partial recovery of VAT on school fees.
We are doing everything possible to mitigate the impact of VAT and are proceeding with caution as we assess its full effects.
Q: Where can I find the updated fee schedule?
A: The updated schedule of fees is available to download at the top of this page.
Q: Will this affect the school’s investment in facilities?
A: No, the introduction of VAT will not hinder investment in the school. We remain committed to upgrading our facilities and enhancing the learning environment for our pupils. The master plan for further improvements is actively being developed.
Q: How will Sherfield School manage the VAT changes in the future?
A: We will continue to work closely with the Board and EiM to address the implications of the VAT changes over the coming years. Updates will be communicated promptly and transparently as new information and decisions emerge.
Q: Who can I contact if I have questions or need clarification?
A: If you have any questions, please contact our finance team at finance@sherfieldschool.co.uk.
Monthly Interest Free Payment Scheme
We offer an interest free monthly payment option to our parents. This offers a way for parents to pay monthly without any interest and without using any external company. For ease and simplicity, we have decided to offer our monthly payment option during the first three months of each term; this means that fees for each term should be paid in three equal instalments during the first three months of the relevant term.
Contact finance@sherfieldschool.co.uk for more information.
Scholarships
Throughout every year Sherfield School offers Academic, Creative, Performing Arts and Sporting Scholarships offering talented children the opportunity to contribute to, flourish and benefit from the ethos and life at the school.
Scholarships are honorary and come with no monetary value.
