UKIP Education Spokesman David Kurten today lambasted
Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn's announcement that he will add VAT to private
school fees: "Jeremy Corbyn’s plan to add VAT to private schools fees is a return to the class war politics of the past and will be entirely counter-productive.
"The Independent Schools sector accounts for around 650,000 pupils; roughly around 6.5% of the school population.
"Adding VAT onto private school tuition will squeeze the already overstretched middle classes forcing many parents to send their children to schools in the state sector, further adding to the shortage of places and increasing the strain they are already facing.
