[quote=Anonymous]Am a World Bank staffer without the education benefits. Among those of us internationals in the professional staff without the benefits, many (esp. two professional income families) could afford private if they liked. Interestingly, I find the Europeans less likely to choose privates (perhaps Brits excepted, and those who choose Lycee, German school etc.). Many from other nationalities (Asian, African, Latin American etc.) seem more likely to opt for privates. I think it speaks to the educational environment people emerged from- in many European countries (esp Scandinavia and on the contrary Britain notably excepted), public schools are the route for most even those in the "elites". In most developing or middle-income countries, a small cluster of private institutions is still largely where elites are cultivated. [/quote]
