during my primary school years i had a racist primary school teacher.not too sure why he wasn't booted out,cause if i had a child going to a school like that i proberbly would have walked in there and gave him the SMASH!
the point of this is rather weird as the next school i went to was a christian church school.at this school i became very sensitive and would cry often.anyone know why this would happen.
i tried in the debates forum but this may get more traction here.

Well, I guess you have your answer then.

My personal preference is private, but that would depend on a lot of criteria. Many people go through both types of school and come out just fine.

1) Rant against the system -- which as an individual you have very small chance of changing.
2) Decide for yourself that you won't let the system affect you for the worse. Pick a direction for your life - and head for it, come hell or highwater.
