Education Fee Planning

Independent schools are widening their access through bursaries and partnerships, improving social mobility which is positive for society – but are you willing to leave your child behind in the education race? In such a global and virtual workplace, your children will be competing with students from the best schools around the world for jobs. It was recently found that attending an independent school is associated with the equivalent of two additional years of schooling by the age of 16.

The best time to begin planning for education is the day your child is born. You then have many years ahead to save money in a fund for education. If you didn’t start saving for education at your children’s birth then a really good time is now. Infant school, primary school, senior school and any further education is going to require money. Belgravia will help you contruct a plan that is both affordable and effective to meet the needs of your family.

Independent school fees have risen faster than inflation every year for the past ten years; and it is not only the education fees. Add on registration fees; school uniforms; school transport; clubs; music and sport lessons and the cost has easily increased by at least 10%. Developing an education plan is an effective way to ensure they have the best education possible. Independent education was found to be particularly favourable at ages 4, 8, 10 and 16 years so it is never too late to begin saving.

School costs money. A good school costs more! The price of international and independent schools across the world were found to be mostly relative to the local cost of the city suggesting they depend on locals and expats on local salaries; as well as generous expat packages paid by large companies. This “access to all” approach is positive and with wise planning the benefits of private schooling can be yours. Belgravia can help you construct a plan that is both affordable and effective in meeting the needs of your family.
