The image for this article, and the same family in slightly different poses, can be found across multiple websites.
The image held within the archived Telegraph article seems to be a generic library image yet there appears to be no reference of this. The footnote of the image implies this is the “hard up” family.
Not that odd, if anything I thought it was strange that someone would give their name and their family’s image to a paper, particularly on a subject as contentious as this.
“Al Moy” may also be a pseudonym. I wonder if “Al Moy” even exists.
I don’t think it matters too much because what the family looks like isn’t important, but I agree that it seems intended to imply that that is a photo of the family
It is pretty funny that they chose the most stock-photo-looking stock photo ever taken though
I smell a rat.

Maybe they had to sell their photos to an agency so they could afford that 5th holiday. Times are hard.
There is at least a real Telegraph article, but it’s odd that they seem to have used a stock photo, as you point out.

Also, while the Torygraph have pulled the article on their site, it’s still up on yahoo: https://finance.yahoo.com/news/earn-345k-soaring-private-school-090000096.html
I read it as A I. Moy, which may be a clue to its origin.

It matters for journalistic integrity and it breaks the trust in factual reporting.
