Family of 5 kids here. 2 of us went to public school, 3 private. The issue is the public schools are hot trash compared to the private ones in my area (Ottawa, Canada).
I hear everyone loud and clear regarding equal opportunity, education as a right, etc etc etc. But education is not something you can get wrong, and the government is far from flawless.
Ideally yes, private schools should be banned and we can work to get everyone the best education possible. But reality is far from that.
Yeah, private schools should exist where public ones are not great, but the government should prioritize education a whole lot more (I’m not Canadian, but this should be true there too), provide better funding, better working conditions for the teachers, more reasons for them to stay in the public sector instead of migrating to private institutions.
I’m very adamant on this because education is of the utmost importance and my country still suffers from the very poor system that operated 50 years ago.
