Census: who here has received private education?

Poll

Have you received private education?

I got a feeling that there are more privately educated people on TSR when compared to the national average. Its perfectly fine but I am just curious to know whether my predictions are true. On average, 7% of people receive private education although for years 12 and 13 (A-levels) its around 10%. Are you one of them? Or not?

Nope, state all the way year 7 to year 13
My dad wanted me to go private but I refused it.
yes, from the years kindergarden and reception (the two years before year 1), and years 1-3.
my parents thought it wasn't worth the money after that point

They are completely different.

Census: An official count or survey, especially of a population.

Consensus: a general agreement..
I went to private school only for primary school years 1-4. The rest of my school time was state-school.
State school master race.

State school, or 'Bog standard comprehensive' as Alistair Campbell once said.
