Paying for an independent school education is a significant investment. Although affordability can be an issue, it may be helpful to explore independent school as one of your child’s options and particularly to learn how these schools can support families to bring tuition costs closer to meeting their financial needs.
Know what to expect as you travel though the process, how to separate fact from fiction, and how to leverage the help and supports that are available to you.
