Why it matters

Some supportBrind's analysis of the reports

The expansion reflects a trend of prestigious British institutions exploring new overseas opportunities, driven by tighter market conditions in China and the introduction of VAT on private school fees in the UK. This signals growing demand for international education among wealthy Indian families.

The international school boom in India is being driven by a shared global education market that involves providers such as Cambridge.
