Comment: Difference between public and private schools

The time you spend in school is the most important time in your whole life. You learn things that are really important to know. That is the reason why it is a big question for parents whether they should put their childen in a public or a private school. The differences are big - and some people believe that private schools do a better job. In the following text I will present the pros and cons of learning at a private or a public school.

First of all, I want to say that public schools are much cheaper. You don't have to pay things like a trip to Paris or expensive school uniforms. Many people believe that such things are not important and that is the reason why they do not want to pay for it. Another reason for a public school is the temper of the kids. In private schools there are some rich and unfriendly guys who believe that the only important thing is the price of the car and clothes. Other kids who don't have enough money to buy things like this are derided. In a public school there are not so many differences and not so much unhappiness because of such things.
But on the other hand there are also some bad things of public schools. Mostly, the buildings are run-down. Even the classrooms are not able to be used anymore because of dust and dirt. But often there is not enough money to repair the buildings. That is a really big problem because it is no atmosphere you want to be or learn in. Another reason is the teachers . Because of these bad conditions many teachers try to get a job at a private school. Besides, they earn more money in a private school. So maybe there are not so many good teachers at public schools.

Now I will show the pros of the private schools. I think it the best reason for a private school is the care for the children. There are many people who do the best for your children and who are not stressed. They help you and your child in every situation and talk to you about teacher problems or something like that. Another reason is that the children are for themselves. You mostly know the other parents and you don't have to worry about a fight between some guys.
The cons of a private schools are the higher school rates. It is very expensive to send your child to a private school. And sometimes you just pay for the coolness of your child and not for his education. The other thing is that people believe that it is a better school where you get a better education. But it is not true because the teachers are just human beings, too. And they teach the same subjects in private and public schools. But it is very hard to tell the children that they don't get a better education than the other guys. And it is also hard to tell them that they are not some better persons just because of their school.

In conclusion I would like o say that nearly anything depends on the money. If you have money you are able to send your child to a private school. But is this really the better solution? I think it mostly depends on the area you live in and the people you know.


It looks like a lot of red, but some of it is just small stuff. Good effort overall! I am very sorry, I can't change the colour any more...
