There are no plans to change the information that is collected on a VAT return in respect of private schools.
On the VAT return, businesses are required to include information on their total sales and purchases, the amount of VAT they owe and the amount of VAT they can reclaim. Further guidance on the fields included on a VAT return and what should be included in each box can be found on Gov.UK . HMRC may request additional information as part of any enquiries.
There are no plans to change the information businesses are required to provide when registering for VAT in respect of private schools.
When a business registers for VAT it needs to provide details about the business and its activities. This includes a Standard Industrial Classification (SIC) trade classification code which is a mandatory requirement. This allows HMRC to determine the type of trade that the business is involved in. Further guidance on what private schools need to do to register for VAT can be found on GOV.UK
