Leave private schools alone

Please, Minister, do not remove the subsidy from private schools.

I want to choose the best education I can for my young child. Should that be provided by a private school, so be it.

I pay taxes, so I am paying for the State-run schools as much as I am contributing to the private schools, as the State pays the schools’ wages bill. In fact, I may be contributing to the State-run schools more, as the State must provide all the equipment for those, while the fees provide that for the private schools.
