In some countries, there are public schools and private schools. Public schools are heavily subsidized by government. Some people think that the public school system is not up to standard but it is a lie. If a child is serious with his or her studies, they can still make it in public school.

Send your children to public schools to cut cost of educating your children while you monitor and encourage them to be serious with their studies.

My children are in a public school, here public is só much better than private ones. Public have better teachers and some good benefits like free school books, affordable meals and some nice extra activities.

[Pistis]

The only challenge with public schools system in my country is that the teachers are not being monitored and they tend to behave and act anyhow they like. But public schools employ the best qualified teachers because they can afford to pay.

True but one should also be careful the kind of public schools you send them to. Some public schools lack good teachers.

During my elementary days, I was studying in a public school. There is nothing wrong if students will be enrolled here. It is how we can maintain our budget.

[Treborika]

This is a very money saving tip especially in my country they charge less school fees than the public schools.

[Pistis]

In some states in my country, public schools are completely free till the completion of high school. All public schools cannot be bad. Look for the good ones and enroll your child.

I went to a public school, as did my partner. It didn't prevent either of us from going to university or pursuing careers.

The public schools in Australia are mostly good, but they vary by area. Like, some have a better music program for example. If your child wanted to pursue a specific career it might be worthwhile sending them to a private school that had good programs for the thing they want to do, provided you could afford it. Otherwise yeah, public school is the way to go. The school fees for a lot of private schools here are astronomical, and on top of that the uniforms cost a lot more.

Usually with public schools you have to enroll in one that is near where you live, so you can't really look for the good ones unless you're prepared to move to a different area.

I am sorry but my child can't attend a public school because the standard is very low for public schools in my country. My dad was a public school teacher but all of his kids attended private schools.

I actually went to a public school but I am able to stand up to my contemporaries that went to private schools. I think it is just a status thing to send kids to private schools.

It sure is, people sendo kids to private schools to show some status, but that doesn't mean their kids are having better quality teaching, on the contrary, here the best teachers are in public schools as their wage is better than in private ones.

Private schools that can employ any person they can afford to pay. Check it out. The requirements to work in a public school is far higher and more standardized than the requirements to work in a private school.

[rakski]

That is true. I went to public school but I saw the changes that happened then and now. Not all the public schools now are the same as before sad to say.

I took my daughter to a private school because she performs better there. I found out that the public schools really neglected children when she came home with a broken arm.

In my country, federal public schools are just the best. The standard is very high over there and no negligence.

Accidents may happen anywhere, it doesn't matter if it is a public or a private school, what is important is giving assistance and taking the children to the hospital.
Also here, public school standards are higher than private ones.

[sweerie_banana]

I disagree, they never even took her to the hospital or called me. That is total negligence. She later broke it again though in the private school- yikes. They called my mother though.

She's better now.

That's what I said, accidents happen everywhere, no matter if it is a public or a private school, both should have taken her to the hospital, that is what they do here, if it is a serious injury, like a broken arm, they go immediately to the hospital and call the parents.

[SHAHID987]

Here private school's fee are too much high as common people can't afford it. So we usually send children in government school and they get good education there.

[peachpurple]

Yes you right. Public school is as good as private school. It all depends on your child interest in studying. If he is not keen, plays around with cellphone, he wont get good grade even with a private tutor
