The teachers and the students are very enthusiastic and they have respect for one another.

Before I came to King’s Interhigh I went to an International school in Cyprus. I liked the school from a socialising side, however, academically it was not good as the students were very disruptive and most of the teachers could not be bothered to stop them and teach the lesson.

At King’s Interhigh I found things to be quite the opposite from an academic side. The teachers and the students are very enthusiastic and they have respect for one another. I feel like people in King’s Interhigh really want to learn, they don’t just come here to waste time.

The teachers push the class so, we can become better and are always willing to help, even on the weekends. I have also made some good friends at the school.

Preparing for a better future…

Since joining King’s Interhigh my self-confidence has had a big boost and I also learned to work and think independently. I believe my progress in all of my topics has greatly improved since starting last summer.

VAT charges explained

The UK Government has implemented a policy to charge VAT on independent schools taking effect from the 1st of January 2025. This VAT charge is payable by families who are based in, or access, King’s InterHigh from the UK. This change does not impact families who are based outside the UK and access King’s InterHigh from another country.

We understand the significant financial commitment you make in choosing our online school as well as how important it is to be able to financially plan. After careful review of the details of the legislation, we will support parents by absorbing costs ourselves, so that a slower phasing in of this unwelcome change reduces its financial impact on families.

For the upcoming 2024-2025 academic year (starting September 2024), Inspired Education Group will absorb much of the 20% VAT charge. For the Spring and Summer terms when the 20% VAT will now apply, we will only pass on 8.5% to families, taking up the difference ourselves.

To further support families with the financial implications of this change in government policy, for the 2025-2026 academic year (starting in September 2025) there will be no inflationary tuition fee increases, and that Inspired Education Group will continue to absorb costs to limit the increase to 8.5% for that academic year. Overall, this will mean we have phased in 17% of the 20% VAT cost over two years to avoid sudden increases for families and have not increased tuition fees.

King’s InterHigh is committed to offering competitive fees and accessible, high-quality independent education, along with the unique benefits of online learning. We are pleased that through careful cost control and the benefits of being part of Inspired, the leading global group of premium schools, we can significantly reduce the financial effect on families due to this change in UK VAT policy.
