In Australia, private schools receive exactly the same government funding as a state school, on the basis that the parents have already paid tax, so the school should receive that money irrespective of its funding model. The private school then decides what top up fees to charge the parents. In some cases this is very little, generally to cover extracurricular activities and sports. Which means that decent private schools are in the reach of far more people, making the average private school much less elitist. It's a pity that Labour didn't do this because it would have removed significant pressure from the state system, improved choice and ensured opportunities for children from less affluent families. But of course this isn't about opportunity and positive outcomes. This is about leftist ideology and class war. And it's so obviously wrong and doomed to implode.Can someone tell me what inheritance tax is we don’t know what that is in Australia.
