Schools by Nurinso Nishanbayeva

Some people believe that attending a private school is more likely to lead to higher academic achievement, while others consider that public schools are better, due to their availability. This essay will discuss both kinds of schools in our country.
Students attending private schools may have more opportunities to get the higher academic background. First of all, in Kazakhstan, as most public schools employ highly educated teachers from foreign countries, their teaching methods and curriculum differ from public schools. There are all subjects are only in English. Secondly, graduates such schools continue their education abroad, they do not pass UNT. They go to the best universities in the world, such as Cambridge, Harvard, Oxford and so on. But on the other hand, in our country private school fees are very high, approximately 700 thousand tenges monthly, however the results are worth it.
The second type is a public school, which is controlled by the government, and parents do not need to pay for their children’s education. They also have positive and negative sides. Firstly, they are available for every citizen. All children despite their material conditions can get free education. However, unlike private schools, public schools have more students per class. For instance, while in private schools about 10 students, in public schools more than 20. On my mind, it also affects the quality of education.
To sum up, comparing the pros and cons of these two types of schools, I would choose a private school to attend, if I had a chance.
