Public Schools vs. Private Schools

[izsabel]

Being someone who has been to both state and private school, the benefits of private schools are better facilities and better environment.

Bench ball is played very odd where you guys are from😂: i played it that two people from each team going on the enemy's bench and its seperated like dodge ball and the people on the bench have to catch the ball and then if they catch it then you join them on the bench and you have to get your whole team on the bench on the enemy side

My take on Grammar schools: Grammar schools are interesting (I've gone to one for the last 5 years) because they take all the best students they can, meaning even if the teachers are bad the students will do well in exams because of that innate ability they were initially chosen for. So there are teachers at my school who can't teach shit and students taught by them still got incredible GCSE results. It's up to the student imo, but the grammar school environment is amazing because you're really competitive with your peers because they're all able minds just like you. Whereas at a school without an entrance exam you will experience mixed abilities of students, so you'll usually not be that competitive because it is relatively more easy to be the best of that bunch(no hate to non-Grammar school kids) but I think that in a grammar school you feel pushed to achieve more. The students and the atmosphere are better motivators than the teachers in my opinion. At the end of the day though, I think it's up to the student. An excellent student will excel everywhere.
Sorry about the essay.

Public is acc private. A school you don’t pay for is called a state school

The good thing is with private schools is that they actually have money and good facilities (because you pay for it) whereas I go to a grammar school and yes, it is good but we constantly are being told that we don't have enough money and are running out of paper for example and also all they care about is grades.

If you do sociology a level you were deffo shaking your head when Simon said everyone has an equal chance at getting into gramma school 😂 Marxism

I went public school in UK and we did football, rugby, badminton, swimming, boxing, gymnastics, athletics, cricket and softball. Anyone else?

Poor thing is public schools are private schools

[jenpickering]

Slightly wrong, you were comparing private and state. It goes: public, private, grammar, state. If anyone is actually curious, read on 😂


Public: used to be run "by the public" and would charge fees for any scholars who could afford to go. These derived from charity schools. They were not owned by the state and fees paid would be returned into the school. The term public comes from them not being selective based on background (e.g. religion) and so anyone who could afford them and met the selective grade requirements could attend.
Private: originally for profit establishments. Now offer an alternative to state schools for those who can afford them. Most have grade requirements also.
Grammar: grades based entry with an 11+ being taken to enter. Whilst most are not fees based, some are.
State: free and not grade dependent.
Independent and Academies: publicly funded schools which can have certain entrance criteria e.g. faith schools.
Other: some schools can be state and charge e.g. state boarding schools. Many of the fee paying schools have scholarships based on anything from living circumstances (e.g. foster children) to sporting or academic abilities. Also, regions in the UK then completely screw with all of the above 😂


There we go, a more comprehensive version of what I have previously written for all who were offended the first time 😂

Simon is the humblest private scholar I have ever seen.

[tommyh]

The fact he doesn't know what type of school he went to explains the main difference

I’ve been to both a state and private school and they’re both good but I prefer my private school, it’s a school that was actually very focused on grades and sport and we usually got 80-90% of kids getting A and above, the facilities and general atmosphere was much better in the private school, everyone was defintely posher but everyone was more accepting in my private school

Shouldn’t it be state schools vs private schools?

[neosdreamonce]

Private school - where you either pay or get a scholarship
Public school/charity school/independent school - where you pay if you can, can get sponsored by rich af people, or get bursaries which are payed for by the government or donators
State school - a non paying, government funded school with no grade requirements
Grammar school - where you have to pass the 11+ or 13+ to get in
Prep school - usually paying school that goes up till year 9
Also lots of public schools and some private schools have separate entrance exams

[lucyjean]

Not necessarily with grammar school though because generally they are in better off areas and there aren’t as many of them

[adamkirtley]

Simon try’s his hardest to not say we fund school trips for the poor kids 😂😂
