2. When parents debate the public or private school
decision, what tips the scales toward the latter? Much
as with choosing an apartment or house, the school
must have certain basics, but it’s the extras that seal
the deal.
 Individual attention—The most commonly noted extra
is the individual attention that private school
enrollment numbers encourage. What is more natural
for parents whose emotional and investment in their
infant is already substantial to want such nurturing to
continue though the early years of education?. Would
you believe that class size in most independent
schools is between 10 and 15?

3.  Parents cooperate—Private schools and parents work
hand-in-hand for the child’s benefit. Think a team of
three. The nature of the involvement is based not
only on how much time parents can devote to lending
a hand, but on their skill and talents.
 Less government interference—Largely free of
government control, private schools need not direct
classroom efforts toward scores on mandated tests.
Students can be taught to think, rather than to
qualify. Public school test scores mean more or less
money from governments and pressure teachers.

4.  Shared values and culture—Possibly the most
compelling reason for the private school choice is
that it places the child in a milieu of shared values
and culture. As well, for reasons of upbringing or
ambition, most private school students buy into the
program: to learn is cool. The disinterested, bored
student is frowned upon. In too many public schools
the reverse is true. Visit this website to learn more
