UK school not much different than any other socialist indoctrination.
It would be cheaper to band with other families and hire a tutor for say six students. That would work out to be roughly $10,000 to $12,000 per kid.
“Children finishing school (K-12) in Britain are functional adults. It takes another 4 years of college or 2 years of trade school for Americans to come close.”
From what I’ve seen of British adults recently that is not necessarily so. They’re lacking in common sense, morality, and any sense of patriotism. Atheism is running rampant in their upper social classes. Yeah, we have our problems. But the British culture is declining at a far faster rate.

Any relation to Quincy Adams Wagstaff?
If he is, I’m against it...
They were saying to me, ‘We want to get out.’”
I’d love to know who they’ve been voting for all this time.
Any wealthy liberal Manhattan parent who is stupid enough to flee to the UK to “escape” Mamdani is going to get what they deserve.
British schools? As if, they don’t have education and Muslim pedo gang problems there, as well?
Fools and their money are soon parted.
Out of the frying pan …
Its not just hypocritical wealthy pseudo parents who won’t use NYC schools or allow their children wanderlust in NYC. The vast majority of white babies born in NYC will not be in a NYC public school beyond age 7. Second generation Hispanics are buying virtually every available home under $600,000 in NYC suburbs. They simply don’t want their children on the streets or in NYC public schools.
Wealthy NYC libtards want to escape Mamdani by going to the UK? Hahahahaha.
When I was stationed in England in the 1970s and you asked an 8-year-old kid a question, he’d answer in grammatically correct complete sentences.
I don’t know what it’s like now.
Embrace the suck.
One of the greatest tragedies of governance in the United States during the second half of the 20th century was allowing the destruction of public education by the left. Looking back it is clear the left purposefully infiltrated and took control of public education by the 1980’s, and has succeeded in its efforts to destroy the curriculum, eliminate standards, and lower every student to the lowest common denominator. Most insidious was turning schools into indoctrination centers where students at a young impressionable age were taught to hate their history and love for liberty. In the 21st century this indoctrination has become obscene by promoting a gender identity agenda of mental illness and mutilation of the body.
Wealthy parents soon observed the precipitous decline in eduction standards. They used their money to buy seats for their children in private schools while they continued to elect the leftist politicians who were supporting the destruction of public education. For a time the private schools continued to maintain high standards and provide quality instruction. Ultimately though, those schools were captured by the leftist education establishment and the propaganda/indoctrination mission gained priority over mastery of life skills.
The MAGA movement has yet to address the destruction of the US education system with an aggressive plan to return to the education system its mission of giving students the fundamental skills needed to be successful in life. Unless education returns to a focus on the mastery of fundamental reading, writing, math, and science skills, as well as a celebration of the great things American has achieved since the revolution and an appreciation for our system of governance, the nation is doomed.
Arguably, reform of the education system at home is more critical to the survival of the republic than continuing to spend trillions on wars in the Middle East.
