    The real high end schools I'd agree that those parents are very likely to be much better off than many of us but plenty of middle earners send their children to private school, they just sacrifice something to pay for it. The discussion on tax relief for private schools should be considered...

    The problem of removing tax relief is that unintentionally you could remove access to a whole section of middle earners to private education - i.e. make private education even more elite. It could also cost the state schools more as parents that can no longer afford private education move their...

    Oh my good f**king god !!!!! You think devaluing a currency is a good thing ?? OK, we'll agree our educational system needs overhauling but I'd suggest Economics becomes a compulsory subject in the new world. That way we wouldn't get utterly stupid ideas like this one.
