Definition:
Public schools: state-funded and state-run schools. Not for profit.
Private school: a private fund-raising school, which means semi-public and semi-private. For the purpose of profit.
Source of funds:
Public schools: funds are allocated by the state.
Private schools: The funds are the private investment of school-running investors plus high tuition fees (the standard approved by the Price Bureau). Self-financing, the development of the school is your own business. Only by running a school well can we not lose money and arouse the enthusiasm of running a school.
Tuition:
Public schools: Primary schools are compulsory, and public primary schools charge very little. Tuition and miscellaneous fees are now waived, and only book fees are charged.
Private schools: According to the quality of accommodation, foreign teachers, various interest classes and other services provided by schools, there are relatively many services, and the fees of private primary schools are generally high, ranging from 89 yuan-10000 yuan per student per semester. For example, English, even if you apply for classes outside, it will cost tens of thousands a year.
Class size:
Public schools: Class size is the biggest "weakness", and many classes have more than 50 students. There are so many students that it is difficult for teachers to take care of every child.
Schools run by the Democratic Movement Bridge: Compared with public primary schools, private primary schools have better control over the class size, with a maximum of more than 40 students and about 30 well-known schools. With fewer students, teachers pay more attention to children, which is more conducive to teaching. The number of students enrolled each year is small, so you need to leave early, so you should ask for registration in advance. Pay attention to official website information of good schools.
Teachers and teaching ability:
Public schools: teachers are relatively stable, with strong teaching ability and rich teaching experience. But there are too many students, and teachers may not pay too much attention to students and communicate with parents.
Private schools: Teachers in private schools have a sense of responsibility. The flexible mechanism of private schools has attracted many highly educated talents to join the teaching staff. Teachers in private schools have a strong sense of crisis and fierce competition because they have no "iron rice bowl", and they pay more to their students, and their sense of responsibility and teaching strength are generally strong.
Hardware facilities guarantee:
Public schools: At present, the balance of educational resources is advocated, and the hardware facilities of public schools will not differ much. In fact, the hardware environment of each school will be different.
Private schools: The environment of private schools is generally better than that of public schools.
