Hi all, Just wondering if anyone agrees with me on this.
Where I live there is a chain (or Trust) of private schools, they have a couple of senior schools/all through schools, some prep schools and some nursery/pre-schools.
We send our DD to one of the pre-schools, no intention of sending her to the prep school or beyond, but it is open term time only (I work term time only not as a teacher though) and has longer hours than the other term time only options around us and took kids from younger than the other term time only options.
Today I found out that the teachers at any of the schools (Pre-school - Sixth form) get a 50% fee reduction if they work at least 3 days a week or equivalent and 25% if they work less than that at any of the schools, so a sixth form teachers child could be getting 50% fees on pre-school for example. This excludes lunch which is billed separately and the breakfast and late clubs (so 7.30-9 and 3-6).
AIBU to think this is really frustrating? I feel like I'm basically subsidising fees for teachers who aren't even at my child's school?
Why would they do this??
