Schools by Assiya Kanibek
According to statistics in 2018, over 26 thousand students out of three million (at that time) study in private schools in Kazakhstan. However, there is ongoing discussion about whether it is better to study in private school or whether in public. This essay will deal with arguments about which school is the best to study.
First of all, when people talk about the advantages of a public school, it is of course its free. Obviously Kazakhstan is not the richest country in the world and there are a lot of families in this country with too many children and too little financial opportunity. And in public schools, there is a lot of free stuff, like: education, content, books, and in some cases, the school provides free food and school supplies. Also, a public school is very good at teaching children about life (or survival) and helps to form a social circle of people with whom to communicate. But it also has negative parts. Most schools do not provide their students with the necessary facilities, starting with sofas, working toilet bowls, sinks, ending with equipped classrooms and things needed for a practical lesson.
On the other hand, there are private schools. And I can say that their main advantage is their convenience. The majority of children of wealthy parents go to private schools. Accordingly, they pay money and for school there is everything that is needed for study. There, the number of students is not too large, so teachers have the opportunity to help students individually and develop in their own direction. And at the expense of its minuses, it's money. Private schools are often very expensive for the average parent. And we can say that private schools create some kind of vacuum for students that they may not fully understand reality.
In conclusion, taking all the arguments into account, I can say that private schools are still the best choice. There are a number of pluses and minuses, but mostly all minuses can be fixed. If you look in general, the problem of public schools is mostly in its education itself, while the problem of private schools, the majority is only in the lack of funds for it.
