Fees

Summer Term 2025

Following confirmation of the government change to legislation which requires us to add VAT to tuition fees from 1 January 2025, the fees below apply for the Spring and Summer terms of the 2024/25 academic year.

Coventry School Foundation has discounted the base fee in order to support our parents in the introduction of this policy, so that after VAT has been added to the fee, the net increase to parents is partially alleviated. These new fees, together with the discount and VAT, are shown below.

Nursery fees, which are not subject to VAT, will remain the same.
