Private Schools are bad for everyone. Agree or disagree?

I agree that it's more to do with the poor in those states and the lack of interest in regulation in general than anything else that makes some of those schools bad. I would actually say some of their schools are better than here so to me it's the community that makes the school.

A great video on how private schools are influencing public schools by allowing the public to compare and contrast different types of learning.

in theory they are bad but i will send my child to private all the way. he is mixed race - black and white - and i honestly feel he will be put into a 'lazy,not too bright, don't push him' category whether some teachers are aware or not. i am therefore not taking the risk. it pains me to go against what i believe in but from experience of being discriminated against, reading various media and academic reports on this issue so i will go private. i feel he is more likely to be pushed to excel.
