Abstract

The article presents the authors' insights on the comparison of private school choice in Australia and Great Britain. They say that private school attendance in Great Britain has remained at an almost constant six to seven percent of school children population while in Australia, it has increased to almost one third of school children in 2011. They cite the study of F. Green and colleagues which show education and earnings difference between private and public schools in Great Britain.
