Consider all the financial factors
Many families will not be eligible for bursaries, but smart financial planning can make a real difference.
With boarding fees now averaging £12,000 per term and day fees over £5,000 per term, fewer parents now pay school fees directly out of their salary. The good news is that there are many smart ways to manage school fees.
Brewin Dolphin’s wealth management team will be at the Show providing expert advice on saving, spreading costs, getting tax efficient help from relatives and covering your child’s education through unexpected income dips.
Brewin Dolphin Directors James Alder & David Quintrell speak regularly on financial planning in our Parent Forums. Recent recordings include:
