Recommended Posts

more and more schools are asking more and more money off parents.

 

Its stupid - we already pay taxes.

Why can't the parents provide this basic need?

 

because we pay taxes.

why are you singling out and pitting one set of kids against another?

 

thats devisive.

 

I'm not sure I'm pitting one set of kids against another set, so I don't know where you're going with that one.

 

It allows around £600 million to be ploughed back into education, to improve education for all. I don't know why it's such an issue it has always been this way until around a couple of years ago.

What else should taxes cover? Perhaps they should cover a 1 week holiday on the Costa Del Sol? And bus and tram fares? Perhaps taxes should pay for my lunch?

It allows £600 million to be splattered up a wall somewhere, handed over to the firms that MPs will have non-executive directorships in later in life.

The money comes directly from the education budget, with the schools funding it themselves, unless I'm mistaken.

I'd just like to pay some taxes. And then the taxes distributed on essentials / needs. Pretty straightforward proposal.

 

It's not the schools fault (directly). But it's not parents job to subsidise the state (which they already pay taxes towards maintaining).

its an ever expanding bill for parents. no wonder teachers are leaving teaching in droves. who'd want to be involved in this mess.
