In the United Kingdom, the Labour Party has promised to place a value-added tax on private school tuition if it takes power after the next election, which is scheduled to take place before the end of 2024. The tax is forecast to bring in some £1.7 billion ($2.06 billion) and could raise private school fees up to 20 percent. Labour Party officials said they would use the money to help fund government schools.
