(Aside: I did wonder if he was manufacturing that financial problem for extra realism with the school, but it is indeed equally likely he'd rather not have the Centre subsidizing Henry's education.)
The thing is, it just makes no sense that this is an issue AT ALL. Henry was given a full scholarship last season and he should absolutely still have it. That's how those private schools work. He has an academic scholarship which means his grades have to be kept high and they are. Plus he's a hockey star. Ivy Leagues would already be courting him and Philip wouldn't be paying anything. That school would never consider letting go.
They're just making Philip look bad to play out the financial worries story as if he's some overreacher capitalist when he isn't.
