Families who send their children to private schools not be required to pay taxes that support the state education, to what extent do you agree or disagree.

When schoolchildren study at private

schools

, some people argue that there is no need for their parents to be taxed for the support of the state

education

system. From my perspective, I am not in favour of

this

opinion, believing that every taxpayer has an obligation to make contributions to local educational resources. People who harbour the view that offering financial support for public

schools

is unnecessary argue that their children are excluded from the system, so it is unfair for them to pay

taxes

for it.

For example

, many public

schools

offer free meals funded by the government,

while

students in private

schools

have to spend money on them. Considering the tuition and other costs, the outgoings of studying at private

schools

are more costly,

thus

the tax may place a higher financial burden on those families.

However

, parents of children educated privately should shoulder the responsibility for public

education

, because it benefits the whole of society. For one thing, public

education

which is usually free and compulsory in most countries plays a crucial role in the national development, which cannot only grow the local economy by offering qualified employees that can attract capital investments, but create job opportunities by providing vocational training programs.

Consequently

, all citizens in the country are able to benefit from it, which requires us to pay

taxes

in return. For another, it is difficult to figure out the accurate number of

taxes

that should not be paid, since public service

also

covers the need for private

schools

.

For instance

, all students need to be protected by police officers and firefighters, thereby making it impossible to calculate the cost in a proper manner and separate the sum of money spent on state

education

from other types of

taxes

.

Furthermore

, almost all students educated privately come from wealthy families, if government discount their

taxes

on

education

, the gap between the rich and the poor will be widened to a certain degree. In conclusion, there are a variety of reasons for all taxpayers to fulfil their duties in society,

thus

under no circumstance should we make financial concessions for people choosing private

education

.
