Public school vs. private school: where do children learn better?

By the end of primary school at the latest, parents are faced with the question of which secondary school their children should go to. More and more children are attending private schools. Parents hope for a better education here but also fear the expensive school fees. But are private schools really better than public schools? How do you find the best school?

Basically, the best school is one that is accessible, that the parents can afford, and that suits the child so that your child will be happy to go - that is the best guarantee for a successful school visit. In urban areas, the choice is usually greater, while in rural areas, the longer journeys to school often limit the choice of schools. Which does not necessarily have to be a disadvantage, but can also make the selection easier.

Cost factor

Public schools are also publicly funded, so school attendance is free here. Of course, what still has to be paid are expenses for teaching materials, travel expenses to school, class trips, etc.

Private schools also receive public funding. However, since these are not enough to cover the costs, parents usually have to expect school fees. How high this turns out depends on the provider of the private school.

Contrary to the image, very few priests charge horrific sums. Instead, the school fees are usually based on the income of the parents, so that school attendance can even be effectively free of charge if the family income is limited. This is because private schools are subject to a so-called special ban: They are not allowed to exclude students for economic reasons.

Private schools: alternative teaching concepts, different focuses

The most difficult question is which type of school is best for the child. Most parents know state schools from their own youth - sometimes more, sometimes less motivated teachers, solid curricula, often face-to-face teaching, regular classwork, grades, and certificates.

Opposite them are a steadily growing number of private schools, now several thousand in India. Children can obtain all recognized qualifications here, so the learning content is not inferior to that of public schools. However, private schools often offer other focal points or teaching concepts, which makes them interesting as alternatives.

Satluj Public School is the top public School in Tricity that has committed to offering alternative teaching concepts. The focus here is on arousing the children's curiosity and interest in the teaching content and motivating them to explore, do, and learn independently.
