The original comment was about affordability.
Surely if you can afford to send your children private you’re doing well enough to pay a bit more
Anyone who can pay for nursery fees without going into debt can probably also afford private school (albeit not a top secondary public school).
That doesn't mean that by default they can pay a bit more.

I don't think the nursery fee comparison works. There isn't a state nursery system in place, they're all private. Plus you can do part time in nursery part at home or all at home, families will kill themselves to cover child care knowing it's just 3 or 4 years before 'free' school kicks in so I think to say people who can afford nursery can afford private school is nonsense quite frankly.

Yes, my point is that I don't have sympathy for people crying about a tax break that allowed them to benefit from and add to an unfair system.
I used tutors and music lessons as an example of things that having money will afford the privilege of getting for your kids but again I wouldn't be expecting a subsidy from the government to pay for them.
