Another nail in the coffin for Labour.
I never thought about private schools until the local state colleges refused to take my daughter for 3 sciences despite getting A* grades at 14, (2 years early) with her GCSEs. Her secondary school was a known failing school and she wasn't from the college's favorite feeder schools.
A local private school saw her grades, gave her a test to sit, interviewed her and gave her the biggest ever scholarship bursary that they had ever given, then on top of that an extra bursary.
And that's the problem with monopolies, you can't go anywhere else if you have a problem with them.
