With the latest Government figures for costings on Secondary education per pupil.
It is over £500 a year cheaper at the majority of Private Schools to educate a Scholar/Pupil/Student or whatever. So where is the money being spent and why if their figures are correct are we still getting awful results. Can't all be the Parents fault surely? Most of the Pupils that leave Private School and go to mainstream do so either because their not good enough or have Financial problems. |

Average costs private education UK 2007-2008 - £9,627 (Info from Halifax report http://www.financedaily.co.uk/News/P...ctFew_582.html) Average costs state education UK 2007-2008 - £5,220 (Info from Gov DCSF website http://www.dcsf.gov.uk/rsgateway/DB/...mDAR020708.pdf) So, private costs are heading for double that of state education costs. I would also take issue with your comments on the reasons students leave private school....for instance, there are private schools for the 4-13 year olds but nothing of any quality for secondary or above within 40 miles of here. Equally, if your local Secondary is considered to be 'outstanding' people tend to want to use it....albeit, in this case, it is selective up to a point.
