any tax benefit for private school fees?

[khk710725]

Sorry for complete ignorance but is there any tax benefits from school fees in uk? I. e. offsetting against income. etc. Just wondered because thought paying private fees on top of taxes seem double paying for education...

.....Which would be a fitting punishment for choosing to educate your off-spring in the private sector according to many on MN

There's no mention of self employed people benefitting in that article! Having a limited company is NOT the same.

there isn't a biscuit big enough

Well @Andrew123456 that makes you, what I would call, a bit of a tosser.

Tax dodges for private school fees. I have heard it all now.

I work in a private school. You can do a salary sacrifice scheme if you send your child to the school as they will take your child's fees from your gross salary, before taxing you.

I love that, in 2017, Andrew has bumped a thread from 2015 to link to an article from 2014.
