Schloss Torgelow determines the relevant portion of school costs annually and certifies this at the beginning of the following calendar year. #### 2. Deductibility of care costs in boarding schools Parents with a child under 14 years old can deduct so-called care costs in addition to school costs as special expenses. 80%* – but a maximum of 4,000 euros* – of the care costs can be deducted per year and child.
