Those 2 public schools that are number one and three?
I go to number one.
Mac.rob. and we're only number one becuase we pass a bloody hard exam to get in. we're the top 3% of the state.
so you can't count us as 'public schools are going ok'
cos we're not! we're going shit! my school is so underfunded. half our computers dont work. we have no grounds. and we can't afford anything. all we have is our seven years at number one. and umpteen at number two
its not that people who go to a public school will get a lower ENTER, or wont get a 99.95. its just that private school pupils have more facilities, and more money. the private schools have the resources for extension classes/learning difficulties, and if you are good at something there are the facilities there to help you e.g. art, sport. you are able to pay for tutoring, and usually don't have money worries......
at public schools people seem to have more stuff going on. i dont know if its just me, but i've een to both public and private, and the private school kids live a very sheltered life. less distraction=higher score
