@Headteacherchat All my teachers have an afternoon PPA and can (and do) choose to work from home. Doesn’t cause any problems for us.

@broadstair @CreEnglish @joenutt_author So sorry to hear this Sam. It’s hard being a small school with an alternative ethos and being treated the same as large public schools. I joined a small school coalition who lobbied for a small school exemption but no-one in Govt listened.

@dhmackenzie @EducationNotTax Met with our local MP @Nus_Ghani who was very supportive. It is so important that this tax doesn’t take away parents’ rights to choose the best educational setting for their child. Children have a right to be educated at innovative child-centred schools. #EducationTax

@Nus_Ghani Fees for children with SEND who thrive at small independent schools should not be subject to VAT. It’s not a luxury to need a nurturing, individualised education. #EducationTax
