W: Good evening, Mr Smith. It’s nice to meet you and your boy in such nice and cozy weather. Is
John going to school this year?
M: Yes. We are thinking of sending him to a private boarding-school instead of the local state school.
W; Really? Well, I wouldn’t dream of sending my little boy away to some strange institution for months on end every year. It would break my heart every term.
M; I don’t think so. I would say that a boarding-school education is good for children because it teaches them to have confidence in themselves. In a boarding school they can learn to be more independent of themselves and less dependent on their parents.
W: But not every child can afford to go to a private school. My nephew only went to his local state school and he’s just been awarded a scholarship to study classics at Cambridge.
M: Anyway, a private school is more innovative and open-minded in teaching children to learn. You will get the value of your money and it is worthwhile.
W: Still, I don’t know what I’ll do with my little boy next year. I don’t want him to go to that big new school. The children of all the common people in the area go there.
M: Well, they are closing all the old schools. If you don’t like the new state school, you’ll just have to pay to send him to a private school, won’t you?
