It's the question that weighs upon every parent: where do I send my kids to school?
But with yearly tuition fees for private schooling reaching truly staggering numbers, another question often follows: is it worth it?

In this eye-opening episode, Skye Predavec, researcher behind the Australia Institute's recent report on private schooling unpacks the data and the stark structural realities of our school system, including:

• Does private schooling equate to better outcomes?
• How does Australia's school system compare to the other parts of the world?
• A look at how private fees consistently outpace inflation, and what it will realistically cost to educate a child born today within the private system
• Why current trends suggest most Australian high school students will be in private systems within a few decades, and what that means for societal inequality
