What are Labour’s plans for ending tax breaks for private schools?

Party policy is to add standard 20% rate of VAT to school fees and use funds raised to pay for more state teachers

One of Labour's headline policies in the run-up to the general election is its promise to end tax breaks for private schools in the UK.

The policy is not new - it was adopted under Jeremy Corbyn and has featured in previous Labour election manifestos. But with Keir Starmer's party leading in the polls and apparently on course for victory on 4 July, it is coming under renewed scrutiny, prompting front page headlines, claims and counter-claims.
