Chief executive of the ISC Julie Robinson has welcomed today's legal challenge against the government's "unprecedented" education tax.
Ms Robinson is quoted in the Daily Express, saying: "This is an unprecedented tax on education – it is right that its compatibility with human rights law is tested. We believe the diversity within independent schools has been ignored in the haste to implement this damaging policy, with families and, ultimately, children, bearing the brunt of the negative impacts this rushed decision is already having."
