The class sizes at state school are bigger than private school. You have 30 kids in 1 class at a state school. So this effects teaching. You have to work hard yourself to get the best grades. But everyone can do well at state school if they just work hard.

You'll be taught by qualified teachers!

would you say the people are different? generalising here

can you still have a personal relationship with a teacher?

Not true re class sizes at GCSE or A level for many subjects. We have a max of 20 in an A level class and many are smaller.

i went to normal state (religious) primary school to a very good independent secondary, and the primary teaching was rly good tbh. i did get a lot of extra g and t activities and stuff, but i also had great class teachers and sports and stuff. the only thing that was lacking was music and language lessons probs

What school do you go to

KS2 teaching of a foreign language is statutory and has been for a while! Ditto music ..

we had a few italian lessons in year 5 but they were quite bad

They weren't following the NC then ... supposed to be in every year in KS2.

No and it was never allowed.

sorry I dont think I was clear here. a personal relationship as in you and your teacher know each other and can have private discussions. for example at my school the classes are quite small therefore the teacher knows you better.
