Rates of commission and other services

The details below apply to schools and other establishments in the British Isles. For details of rates of commission and other services for schools worldwide please click here

RATES OF COMMISSION
‘No sale, No fee’ – we only charge you commission if we have introduced you to the successful purchaser. We offer sellers two simple options:

• Option 1 – 2% (plus VAT) of the sale price if you market your school or nursery exclusively through National SchoolTransfer for a period of three months from completion of registration. After the three month period you are free to register with other agencies but you would still remain on our books and be charged at the 2% rate if we introduce the purchaser.
  
  
• Option 2 – 2½% (plus VAT) of the sale price if you are registered with (or wish to register with) any other agencies or simultaneously seek a private sale.

Compare our rates and terms with other agencies. You have nothing to lose by registering your school or nursery with National SchoolTransfer.

OTHER SERVICES
National SchoolTransfer has, over the years, developed a wide range of expertise and contacts allowing us to offer additional services. A consultancy visit can be easily arranged. Do any of the situations below apply to you?

• Uncertain about selling?
  You may not want to sell your school or nursery but need advice on how to increase its profitability.
  
  
• Need a new direction?
  NST may have clients on its register who can infuse new vision, direction, management skills and a financial overhaul to a school.
  
  
• Looming school closure?
  If pupil numbers are dwindling a rescue plan may well be needed. Speed is of the essence!
  
  
• School mergers?
  At a school owner’s request NST can identify schools as possible merger partners, approaching them in confidence and without revealing your school’s identity.
  
  
• Consider a partnership?
  Rather than selling your school you may be interested in a partnership. We have clients looking for this sort of arrangement and have assisted several schools in such a way.
  
  
• Have you found a school you wish to buy?
  If you have identified a school that you wish to buy we could approach it on your behalf. The school is more likely to respond to an approach from us, who have a reputation to maintain, than to an unsolicited approach from someone they have never heard of.
