Our method

How we calculate the real cost

A school's headline fee is rarely what a family pays. We add the costs schools publish separately — meals, transport, uniform and materials, exam fees — and spread one-off fees such as enrolment or capital levies over the years your child will spend at the school.

Every figure carries its source and the date we checked it. If a school does not publish its fees, we say so and never guess.
