id just like to say that private schools arent for the snobby, rich fucked up retards that seems to be the image that some people portray. most private school kids get to that school by working extremely hard. they go through the same experiences as other kids. they get bullied, they get into fights, and they get into trouble. lots of the families give up luxuries like holidays in order to pay for the school fees. I admit there are some private school kids who are complete nerds and rejects who spend every waking minute of their free time reading or doing homework, but they make up a very small minority of the school. i myself whent to a state primary school and a private secondairy school and i can say there is very little difference. i have friends from state and private schools and they are all perfectly normal. so all those sterio types who go on about private kids having every thing set up for them and dont have to work a they in their life you are wrong close minded bad people who should try a little empathy in their lives.

A place to escape from the evil government conspiracy to brainwash public school students into being emotional wrecks, dependent on the Man and ready to waste their life in a factory or cubicle.
Praise Jesus! My family has enough money (barely) to send me to private school and save me from the Man!

Ok look. I went from a public to private school. There are so many reasons why its better... I am getting a much better education that I ever did at public school, and its smaller. We have every class every day. I learn a lot more. And all of you guys can say whatever you want, but there is not ONE KID at my school who is as stuck up as anyone I have ever met at my public school... They're nicer... Honestly. We'll do better in the long run :P
Public school kid- "WTF like why does she go to like to private school?!?!?!?omg NERD.."
Private school kids friend- "Wow you need a life...for one she can go without saying 'like' for one sentence..."

Private schools are for kids who, yes can afford to go there. But they're not snobby bitches. Just because some children can't afford to get in doesn't mean they have to be jealous and shitty. The kids from private schools can't help where they go, it's where life took them.

A private school is a school which you have to pay fees or have a scholarship or bursary to get into. Most seem to assume that everyone who goes to a private school is rich, white, sheltered and preppy. This is incorrect; I speak as a private school girl of four years who came from three state schools before when I say that only about 1% of my school matches this description.
Only about ten percent of people at the average private school in London are white.
Only a few people are excessively rich as well. For example some families work like hell so their child can go to a private school on a bursary or scholarship, which is even after fees are cut. This is mostly not because of a prejudice against state schooling, but because the parents believe their child would flourish in that particular school. The few who are rich at private schools generally aren't snobby like shown on TV.
Being at private school also doesn't mean that you are sheltered from the real world. We know what drugs are, we know what poverty is and we also have kids with their own problems. I know a girl who works for three hours a day and seven on weekends so she can support her family and pay school fees after her 70% scholarship.
Overall, private school stereotypes are merely a stupid generalisation for normal kids who just have wear a uniform and pay fees.
So don't call it a place where parents send their kids because they are rich, racist or snobby, because it is untrue.
