I currently go to a private school and was meant to leave it at the end of the year, once I'd completed my A-levels. The only way I'm able to go since my family don't make enough to send both me and my brother is through our scholarships and the army - which gives parents an allowance to keep their kids in consistent education. (I move around a lot as my Dad gets different jobs so staying at a boarding school is a much better option than switching school every couple of years).
The Labour government's addition of VAT and removal of business rates for private schools means my parents will have to pay thousands of pounds more to keep me and my brother in school this year, money we essentially don't have.
I don't want to argue about whether or not this is 'fair' or 'good' as I'm sure a lot of people will feel strongly about what is happening, but I just don't know what to do since my A-Levels might be ruined by moving school. I've got A* UTGs for all my subjects and leaving would mean that I might have to retake my subjects or pick new ones entirely because of different syllabuses, as well as find new friends and teachers and adjust to all the admin of a new school which I can't afford to spend time doing if I want to go to Oxbridge.
As a seventeen year-old I don't think anyone will take what I have to say seriously and I doubt the parents out there who have to deal with this will get any sympathy either. Please can someone talk to me.
