Current account and savings

I have a Santander 123 account already and I transfer £1250 per month into it. I then withdraw the whole amount every 4 months and start again.(school fees)!!!!
I was getting a little interest on this but obviously now I won't and I have to pay for it. Any suggestions as to the best way of doing this ....it's for the next 3 years .
