School Fee Plan

As parents, we all want to give our children the best possible start in life. A private education is one of the key ways in which we can equip children to take full advantage of the opportunities that life will bring. However, when the time comes to paying school fees, our budgets can sometimes be put under considerable pressure.

SFP enables parents to spread the cost of school fees rather than paying a lump sum each term by providing an effective and flexible way to spread the cost of school fees*.

*Credit is subject to status. Terms and conditions apply. Credit agreements are available to over 18s only.
