A father from Staffordshire is suing a £28,000-per-year private school after his son left with just one pass at GCSE.Scott Craddock, 57, has served papers to Abbotsholme School in Rocester after complaining that he did not get his money’s worth by sending his son David to the school. Link.
So, if you've paid £28,000 a year for your son's education in a private school should you demand or expect exam success for your money?
I've heard worrying claims of similar attitudes at several newer UK universities where 2:1 and 1sts are becoming "far too common" since the introduction of fees. This is not across all UK universities - just a very specific group and type of university.
