Fee levels are reviewed annually.

The loss of the sibling discount remission has the least impact on an individual as it works out at 50p per lesson for a full year of 31 lessons for a second child. 100% remissions for children on FSM and maintain working tax credit remission at 30% will be maintained in order to ensure the most vulnerable children still have access to tuition.
