Worth having a read, if you've only been following this story intermittently. The BBC, also have a report as well as a further article on refunds of fees. This article puts the ISC's view in this way:
The body, which represents 1,000 public schools, said there was evidence that sharing information kept fees down rather than inflating them.Its general secretary, Jonathan Shephard, said: "Schools have no motive to raise more money than they need.
"Any money raised from fees has to be spent on the children and the schools so any extra money might be spent on better food or another brick for the gym."
From our point of view I feel that this is yet another aspect of our "image" that we will have challenged in years to come. Best to prepare your defence now!

Of course we know that schools price fix, but doesn't this conflict with their status as charities?
