If you’re wondering whether or not it’s worthwhile sending your kid to one of the many independent schools, we'll share the differences from state schools and all of the benefits that independent schools offer.![school classroom](https://www.gostudent.org/hs-fs/hubfs/Insights_GoStudent_Blog_Images/classromm-school-chairs-board.jpg?width=1000&name=classromm-school-chairs-board.jpg) ## What does independent school mean in the UK?   In the UK, an independent school is a [private school](https://www.gostudent.org/en-gb/blog/private-schools) that is run independently from the state. There are thousands of independent schools in the UK that cover all ages. To enter an independent secondary school, students usually have to take one or more of the following 11+ entrance exams: English, [Maths](https://www.gostudent.org/en-gb/blog/11-plus-maths-topics), Verbal Reasoning, and Non-Verbal Reasoning. If your kid needs help preparing, we have [11+ tutors](https://www.gostudent.org/en/our-tutors) who are here to help. 🥰 ### Are independent schools free? No, they aren’t. Since they aren’t funded by the state, independent schools rely on student fees, endowments, and gifts. ### What is the difference between independent schools and private schools? These terms are commonly used interchangeably and that’s because all independent schools are technically [private schools](https://www.gostudent.org/en-gb/blog/private-schools). There can be a difference between some of them because all independent schools are run by a board of governors or trustees, whereas private schools can be without a governing body with just the owner/s overseeing it. ### Are public schools independent schools? Yes, public schools are independent schools. However, public schools are predominantly [boarding schools](https://www.gostudent.org/en-gb/blog/boarding-schools-uk).    ## What do independent schools offer?   Since independent schools get their funding privately they have more money to put towards resources. There are a number of benefits that independent schools typically offer as a result: - Smaller class sizes so students get more individualised attention from teachers - Better facilities in the classrooms and on the school grounds, in general - A wider variety of extra-curricular activities and sports - More subjects to choose from - Better qualified teachers ### Are independent schools better? Due to the better resources, independent schools are often better than state schools. Students at independent schools are more likely to get an [A grade at A-level](https://www.gostudent.org/en/tuition/a-level) so there is an advantage academically. There is a higher university acceptance rate for students who attend independent schools too.    ## What are the main types of independent schools in the UK?   Independent schools can be categorised by the following [age groups](https://www.isbi.com/school-types/independent-schools.php): - Pre-Prep Schools – Ages four to seven - Prep Schools – Ages eight to 11 or eight to 13 - Senior Schools – Ages 11 or 13 to 16 or 18 depending on if they have a sixth form or not - All-Through Schools – Ages three to either 16 or 18 depending on if they have a sixth form or not - Private [Sixth Form](https://www.gostudent.org/en-gb/blog/starting-sixth-form) Colleges – Ages 16 to 18 What type of independent school you choose will depend on what age your child is and whether you want them to complete all of their school education in independent schools.  ### How many independent schools are in the UK? There are [2,461 independent schools](https://www.besa.org.uk/key-uk-education-statistics/#:~:text=There%20are%202%2C461%20independent%20schools,UK's%20schools%20are%20in%20England.) in the UK. That’s out of a total of 32,163 schools.   ## How much do independent schools cost each year?   There are a number of cost considerations to factor in if you want to send your child to any of the UK’s independent schools: - Annual school tuition fees - The school uniform - Trips and excursions - Additional lessons e.g. music In terms of independent schools’ tuition fees, here are some [figures](https://www.goodschoolsguide.co.uk/digital-media/blog/the-future-of-private-school-fees) to give you a good gauge if you were to send your kid to day school for the duration of their education (starting from reception): - A more expensive independent school in London would total around £470,000 - An independent school that comes in at the UK average would cost around £270,000 That’s a huge difference so you should check with each school what their tuition fees are. 💷 Of course, you will also be restricted by location and which are feasible to send your kid to.    ## Which are the best independent schools?   Best Schools provides impartial and expert advice on UK independent Schools.
