UK High Court upholds VAT on private school fees, rejecting claims it violates human rights.
A group of private schools and parents in the UK lost their High Court challenge against the imposition of VAT on school fees, which was introduced on January 1.
The Treasury defended the policy, arguing it raises funds for public education.
The judges dismissed the challenges, stating that while the policy interferes with some human rights, there is a "broad margin of discretion" in balancing affected interests against public benefit.
The court also noted that there is no right to require the state to facilitate access to private schools.
