The news comes in the wake of a major legal ruling dismissing a challenge against a controversial levy on private school fees in the UK.
Three High Court judges last week dismissed a case brought by the Independent Schools Council (ISC) that the Labour government’s VAT tax on private school fees was against human rights, as well as being discriminatory.
It followed a furious legal battle as private schools set about trying to overturn the policy, as fears grew that international enrolments at UK boarding schools could tank as a result.
