About this episode
As the cost of living crisis drags on, it seems even some of the country’s top educators can’t avoid the woes of inflation.
An analysis by the Herald has revealed school fees for many of the country’s top private schools have risen drastically in the last two years.
So what’s driving those costs – and do these schools results justify the fees?
Today on The Front Page, NZ Herald senior journalist Alex Spence talks us through the rising cost of going to the country’s most exclusive schools, and later, Head of Data Chris Knox looks at the results for these schools.
