        Think of it as a small tax rebate to parents paying private school fees and also paying for state schools that they are not using

        Not at all. My point is that it is low attainment state schools that are failing bright working class pupils, not Oxbridge.

        I agree 100% Students from working class background with an aptitude to learn can then achieve to a level on par with inde educated pupils. Socialists will not like what I am saying but many LabourMP’s sent their kids private such as Dianne Abbott.

        And Emily Thornberry, Labour (Lady Nugee) who sent her kids to selective schools some distance away from her £3.5 million home in Islington 1 of 4 expensive properties her and her husband have. That must hurt Momentum.

        The figures aren’t quite so stark at sixth form, where the percentage of 16-18-year-olds at Independent Schools is higher.

        1/3 of the girls at my private school were on assisted places as from poorer backgrounds - but Labour put a stop to all that.

        That would be fine if they hadn't also abolished grammars. Labour remove opportunities as bright, well-educated people won't vote for them.

        They helped a lot of working class children, my parents included, achieve a much better life. Jealousy by a few shouldn't stop the others.

        It's not about jealousy, it's about wanting the best for each and every child, not just the few who can pass an exam at 11.

        Also, if you read the link I posted, they don't help that much, maybe half a grade by GCSE point.
