The main problem of the public schools is the larger school size and student population. According to a study, public schools have an average of 16 students per teacher, whereas private schools have an average of 13 students per teacher. Students in public schools can get a less individual attention, compared to private schools. Since the public school education is free the academic curriculum and programs may not be as refined as those of private schools. In private schools, they will decide the academic curriculum and the assessment system. But in public schools state have to decide the systems.

Another educational problem of public schools is higher rate of violence and student dropout. It is due to the fact that public schools accept all students, irrespective of their behavior and talent. Whereas in case of private schools, they select students on the basis of their assessment, thus resulting in a safer environment.

Though public schools have some educational problems, there are certain advantages of public school education. Since the student populace is more in public schools, exposure to various kinds of people from different socio-economic backgrounds, teaches students to get along with people, irrespective of their social status. This system has to change to help the children who can not get the private schools.
