    Private and public schools should be banned though.

        In the UK private and public schools are both fee-paying schools, while state funded schools are usually referred to as comprehensives.

          Ah thanks! I wasn’t actually aware of that distinction.

            I’m far from an expert but I believe private schools can basically teach as they see fit, don’t have to follow the curriculum etc, while public schools follow the state guidelines still while being fee-paying.

            Private school to pay for education.

            Public school you pay for connections (education good also) see Eton.

        Agree.

        But why should some kids go to elite schools just based on who their parents are?

Opinion pieces are also allowed, provided they are not misleading/misrepresented/drivel, and have proper sources.

If you think “reputable news source” needs some definition, by all means start a meta thread.

Posts should be manually submitted, not by bot. Link titles should not be editorialised.

Disappointing comments will generally be left to fester in ratio, outright horrible comments will be removed.
Message the mods if you feel something really should be removed, or if a user seems to have a pattern of awful comments.
