'The schools system has a major impact on house prices,' said Ben Hudson, a property expert in York
“The cost of fees does make a difference, a lot of these people are struggling and saving to put their children through private school, they aren’t living in fabulous houses.
Andy Holme, from Ashworth Holme estate agents in Sale, said an increase in private school fees could see even more wealthier families wanting to move in. “We have people buying two-bed flats to get into schools. So it’s not just people paying fees that make it competitive.”
