Paying to live near a good school... latest figures
This is a bit of a regular item, with owners of relevant data (property portals, search engines, Land Registry subscribers) extrapolating figures purporting to reveal the catchment area premium paid by desperate London parents. Why's this one different? This one's a YouGov poll, targeting London parents, and it comes at a time of falling house prices and rising private education costs. According to the results, 19% would pay between a premium of between £5,000 and £100,000 for access to a good state school. Two per cent would consider paying more than £100,000.
