Figures are published prices, fees and surveys as dated, converted to pounds at the stated rates. They change, vary by home, school year and membership, and are a guide, not a quote. Nothing here is financial, tax or legal advice.

04 · 26 cities

Each city in full.

Each city opens onto its full year: what each line buys, where the figure comes from, how foreign income is taxed and how prime prices moved.
