Schools by Ayana Baiganova
If the question is what is better private or public school, then most likely my answer will be private school. Well, in private schools, everything is perfect, except for one thing, tuition fees. In our country, not many people can afford to study in private schools. But such schools are worth paying such money, because after finishing private schools, graduates most often do not pass the UNT, but immediately apply to foreign universities and pass local entrance exams, surprisingly with high scores, because most often private schools are taught by teachers from abroad with higher education, so students have a chance to study abroad.
Well, now about the disadvantages of such schools. Some private educational institutions with expensive education are accused of unwise waste of funds and mismatch of prices and services. Last year, the parents of a child studying in one of these schools publicly stated that their families pay from 6.2 to 9.5 million tenge per year for the education of students, and these amounts are increasing annually. In addition, applicants must pay 365 thousand tenge as a guarantee fee and 37 thousand tenge for passing the test.
If we start talking about public schools, let's first move on to the pros. The advantages of a public school include:
free tuition;
a large children's team promotes socialization and the development of communication skills. The child learns to solve conflict situations independently;
distribution to the school takes place at the place of residence. The proximity to the house is an advantage, as the child will be able to go to classes on his own.
Also, the state educational institution has many disadvantages:
teachers can't pay attention to each student because of the overcrowding of classes. The standard 45 minutes of the lesson is not enough to explain the material clearly to everyone. Teachers are very busy and do not conduct elective classes. Parents have to hire a tutor if the child is lagging behind in some subject;
the small amount of funding from the budget does not allow us to purchase high-quality products. Due to poor nutrition, children who remain in the extended day group are particularly affected;
teachers in public institutions are not always polite to both children and parents;
conservative methods of education, because of which children have no interest in the learning process. The result is a low level of knowledge and poor grades.
Choosing an educational institution is an important step. In addition to the quality of education, comfortable learning conditions are important. A good school will facilitate admission to a prestigious university and ensure the future of the child.
