Fees

[Vonny]

A quote from the Mail today....
"Although boarding fees are £28,000 a year, the school is rare in offering almost all its places for free or a reduced rate through a charitable scheme which funds 70% of pupils' fees."
I beg to differ from what I've read on here!

I suspect, Vonnyu, that the phrase is not well written. We know that some pupils pay nothing and that the fees of most of the rest are subsidised. It could be that when the total cost for all pupils are added up then the subsidies (or whatever you like to call them) come to 70% of the total.

Whatever, it does show the school in a good light compared to other public schools.
