General community for news/discussion in the UK.
Less serious posts should go in !casualuk@feddit.uk or !andfinally@feddit.uk
More serious politics should go in !uk_politics@feddit.uk.
Try not to spam the same link to multiple feddit.uk communities.
Pick the most appropriate, and put it there.
Posts should be related to UK-centric news, and should be either a link to a reputable source, or a text post on this community.
Opinion pieces are also allowed, provided they are not misleading/misrepresented/drivel, and have proper sources.
If you think "reputable news source" needs some definition, by all means start a meta thread.
Posts should be manually submitted, not by bot. Link titles should not be editorialised.
Disappointing comments will generally be left to fester in ratio, outright horrible comments will be removed.
Message the mods if you feel something really should be removed, or if a user seems to have a pattern of awful comments.

Want to save a lot of money? Send them to a public school.
Guessing your not from the UK. It means something different in England and Wales https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Public_school_(United_Kingdom)
"state school" in UK terminology. Public school in the UK means private school. Weird I know.
Not all of the UK for bonus confusion
The article IS about a public school. State schools in the UK are not open to the general public, you must live in its catchment area to be able to get your kids inside and often match other criteria as well. Private schools are called public in the UK because they don't have restrictions and are open to all members of public - if you have cash then your kids can study.
