Labour tax policy: ISC CEO urges party to 'take into account the school year and admissions cycles'

Ms Robinson added: “This is only one part of the picture: families and schools still do not have the clarity they need to properly plan. In particular we are concerned about the prospect of in-year tax rises and the acute negative effect that would have on parents’ budgets and children’s education. We hope that any policy would take into account the school year and admissions cycles. We look forward to engaging with any new government on how we can work together on our shared goal to improve education for all.”
