School Fees – Elasticity of Demand in Independent Schools

White Paper on School Fees in Independent Schools:

In February 2024, MTM Consulting commissioned a white paper in conjunction with the University of Essex and Dr Nick Rowe to explore the fee elasticity of demand in independent schools.

The paper provides a comprehensive overview of the UK’s independent education sector, examining how changes in school fees impact demand, and was launched at the Houses of Parliament in February 2024.

School Fees – what do they look like at your independent school?

While it offers valuable insights into national trends, it’s important to note that there is significant variation between individual schools, depending on factors such as local demographics, levels of competition, and market positioning.

Understanding your school’s specific context is essential, particularly in light of VAT of school fees.
