feel your pain, my kids are in as well but the highest yearly fee is £10k upto 11 years old, hence hoping they get into grammar otherwise it's the local academy, because I'm not paying £12k*3*7 = £252kOriginally posted by Eirikur View Postmy kids schools are 15k per year 2 children 15k*2*7 = 210k and that's a quite average fee for a selective private school and all of this just because the state education system is an absolute disgrace and I'm not getting my tax back because I pay myself for education (and medical health)Comment
