Why I moved my son from a prep school to a state primary

school was gleaming, brimming with opportunities for our child to learn
foreign and classical languages, musical instruments and attain a really
top-class academic education. Since the only good local primary school in

place for our four-year-old son and delve deep into our pockets and pay
£12,000 a year to give him the best education money could buy.
