VAT Reduction
Unless a school is VAT registered (the big ones will be) it will make no difference and as fuel duty is increased to negate the cut in VAT there is no difference really if you have already paid. Obviously in the words of Tesco "every little helps" but really it is insignificant. Also the 2.5% rise in duty on tobacco was made from 6pm yesterday! How has anyone really got any extra to spend??
