"The slow death of the English boarding school". Henry Mance in the #FT on how times, taxes and ideas about parenting are changing.

@2legged A screenshot of a Financial Times article header featuring a landscape photograph of a large, historic stone building with multiple chimneys, surrounded by dense green trees and a manicured lawn under a partly cloudy sky. The Financial Times logo is displayed in uppercase at the top center. To the left of the photograph, the text "Life & Arts" and a button labeled "Add to myFT" are visible. The main headline reads "The slow death of the English boarding school" with the subheading "Times, taxes and ideas about parenting are changing" positioned below it. A caption at the bottom of the image states "Rendcomb College in the Cotswolds © Alamy".
