I don't understand why banning them makes funding state schools easier.
Because there will be privileges people realising that their state schools is underfunded and will end up investing in it than the private school.
In the UK, seven per cent of secondary school children are privately educated. In 2019, tuition fees cost an average of £18,000 per year for day students or £35,000 for boarders. In the same year, the median household income in the UK was £28,400.
Interrogating the role of private schools in Britain is important because we live in a country where the majority of leaders in politics, business and in the arts were privately educated.”
