In 1968 Finland banned for profit education, the few private schools that exist in Finland have to reinvest any profit they make or pay it back to parents.
It has been in the Top 3 in education for the last 20 years.
There should be no profit in education or healthcare.

The young people literally don't know how to read. They've been failed by an education system beholden to special interests and corporate rent-seeking.
Plus the planet is dying and young people feel they have no future.

A sane society would nationalise the estate which such a key national service requires . . .
PFI is where Private Investment build NHS buildings and then the NHS rents it.
The result is the NHS permanently has 'no money' because it has to pay huge rent costs and the Government goes, "Oh dear we will have to cut services."
