  • Maybe but IMO there will always be someone who wants to pay for education. I totally agree that the system isn't right atm and would rather state run schools be on a level with private ones. And that they were not so many of the private schools

    I don't understand why banning them makes funding state schools easier.

  • How about removing the charitable status and tax advantages?

    Or yeah just ban them, they are there to create a buffer against social mobility and to prevent a meritocracy breaking out

  • I'm with you on banning them, mainly for the reasons you've listed.

    I've met literally hundreds of people who went to fee paying schools and almost without fail, they are cunts, full of self-entitlement and privilege, many of whom are in positions of power and responsibility now because of who they know, not their own merits.

  • Yeah take away the tax and charitable stuff.
    @edscoble If that would happen then maybe banning would work.

    I think we all agree that state schools need to be helped and teachers paid well for the work.
