How much funding do they get?I'm old enough to remember when charter schools started to be given public monies. Prior to that they were predominitely church- based.
The average kiwi was ouraged that such exclusive, privately-owned and supported schools (through rich and priveleged sectors like farmers - even though they were the most govt subsidised industries around) could partake of the limited public purse. Guess which de ile schools had to grin and bear reduced funding?
All private schools get funding at the same rate as state schools. Is it more or less than that?
All schools in addition to operational funding get capital investment as well on a need basis. If it’s more than the operational of normal schools, was it for capital investment?
Personally just like health care or super, all children should get the same investment from the government - even home schooled kids get funding.
