Families who send their children to
private schools should not be required to pay taxes that support the state education
system.
To what extent do you agree or disagree
with this statement?
Some
people believe that parents of children who attend private schools should not
need to contribute to state schools through taxes. Personally, I completely
disagree with this view.
For
a variety of reasons, it would be wrong to reduce taxes for families who pay
for private education. Firstly, it would be difficult to calculate the correct
amount of tax reduction for these families, and staff would be required to
manage this complex process. Secondly, we all pay a certain amount of tax for
public services that we may not use. For example, most people are fortunate
enough not to have to call the police or fire brigade at any time in their
lives, but they would not expect a tax reduction for this. Finally, if wealthy
families were given a tax discount for sending their children to private
schools, we might have a situation where poorer people pay higher taxes than
the rich.
In
my opinion, we should all be happy to pay our share of the money that supports
public schools. It is beneficial for all members of society to have a high
quality education system with equal opportunities for all young people. This
will result in a well-educated workforce, and in turn a more productive and
prosperous nation. Parents of children in private schools may also see the
advantages of this in their own lives. For example, a company owner will need
well qualified and competent staff, and a well-funded education system can
provide such employees.
In
conclusion, I do not believe that any financial concessions should be made for
people who choose private education.
