Comparison and Contrast between Public and Private Schools
Comparing private and public schools can be more or less like comparing oranges and
apples, two very disparate things that can never be held on similar standards. Choosing
the best school for your child is one of the most important decisions parents have to make
for their children but most parents rely on rumors and hearsay in deciding on whether to
send their children to a private or a public school.
The best ways to determine whether you are making the right decision for your child is
by visiting the school and asking for clarification from teachers for all your queries. What
school your youngster attend to is a personal decision which is greatly determined by the
family values, special needs of the kids, his mannerisms and interests.
This essay critically compares the differences and similarities, advantages and
disadvantages and the issues that a rise in both private and public schools that affects the
education of the children mainly preschool kids the its effects they on the kids future life.
Statistics show that some time back private school used to do better than public schools
but recently this gap has been narrowing and making it harder for parents to choose
between a private independent school with a high price tag on it, from a local public
school which is relatively cheaper (Diana, 2006).
According to Maureen ( 2011, pp.10) public schools usually have larger class sizes due to
the fact that they are required to admit every child who meets the qualifications set by the
government. This offers an advantage to the pre-school children by improving their
communication and socializing skills since they interact with more children from
different races, cultures and social classes.
However, large classes are also disadvantageous in that it reduces the ratio of teachers to
students and this tends to limit the teacher’s concentration on students hence limiting the
children’s there performance. The average ratio of teachers to students in public schools
is 1:17while in private schools its 1:9.


Private schools on the other hand are very selective in terms of their admissions. Some
schools cannot admit students from certain religions, races or even economic status. This
tends to reduce the population of private schools. Some of the long term effects to

children attending privately owned pre-schools are poor socializing skills due to the low
population size and similar social classes, religion and lack of diverse cultures (Robert,
2011, pp4).
Public schools are cheaper and they are funded by the government and some of them are
usually underfunded. They are a part of the large school system which is part of the
government and this makes them vulnerable to the political influence hence exposes them
to political vulnerabilities which if experienced affects their performance.
The economic status of the country and the government also greatly affects the operations
of public schools. Their curriculum is determined by the government and as you know
different regions face different challenges hence the need for different curriculum to meet
the different needs. (GreatSchools, 2010, pp.5)
Private schools on the other hand charge a higher tuition fee which is the major source of
its funds. This makes them independent and protects them from the political realm hence
they are free to determine their own curricula which is usually single minded, producing
best results by providing the best quality of education possible (Eddie, 2011, pp.4)
In cases of children with special needs public schools usually have special programs and
specially trained teachers who are well trained to work with such children. In contrast
most private schools lack these programs and they are sometimes forced to deny such
kids admission to their institutions and sometimes these services may be offered at an
extra cost.
Is the question about which schools are better, private or public schools, answered yet? I
bet not since there are no clear conclusions since they both have advantages and
disadvantages as we have seen. In a nut shell the best school for ones child depends on


the values, mannerisms, family, back ground, needs and interests of both the parents and
the children. In other words one man’s meat is another man’s poison.
