Our leaders are distanced from the problem so it does not matter to them because they are making decisions for people at the bottom. I believe that every government official must be forced to take their children to public schools, that way it aligns their interests and they will want to change the current situation. Private schools are good and well run they are a form of disincentive for government to actually take public education seriously and raise the bar. However, given where I am from, private school is my only option. These former Model C schools do a really good job. I would take my children to a public school only if I am around Johannesburg. This is unfortunate because this means that poor people are excluded from quality education by the virtue of being poor. What makes private school better is the quality of teaching and the right allocation of funds. Look at the Asian countries such as South Korea and Japan they are developing because they have invested in every child’seducation – private and public. The onus is on the government to invest in quality primary education. Private schools in South Africa are obviously better. If our government invested more in the public school system, I would have more faith in it, but in its current state I choose private schools. The public school system in this country is mismanaged but it is a very complex issue. And because of my experience I prefer private education more than I do public education. I went to two high schools one private and one public, in that order. Karl Van Wyk, Johannesburg, PhD candidate In public schools you don’t feel socially inferior in any way. there is no social pressure to have the latest gadgets or clothes and we are more sensitive to each other’s realities at home. Although I think the quality of private school education is better, it is only for rich kids. I go to a semi-public high school some of our teachers are sponsored or they are paid directly by the school. In private schools teachers are there to facilitate more than they are there to actually teach. The public school system is better than private school because the teachers are more hands on in the public schools. ![]() Latoya Selekane, 18, Braamfontein, learner The teachers in public schools cannot teach and the children don’t have a bright future. The children in public schools generally don’t do well and I want to give my children the best education I can get them. In the near future I may have to take them to a public school and that worries me a lot because I do not trust public schools. My children currently go to a private school, but I can barely afford it. Private schools are better than public schools.
