Generally, yes. People try to get their children into such schools, despite the religious indoctrination, just for that purpose. In Great Britain it is quite a problem with many parents pretending to be Catholic, or going through the motions to get their children better educations.

Are Catholic schools more difficult than public schools that have a harder curriculum and are well funded?

I attended Catholic schools for 12 years, and later taught public school, so I have a "both sides" viewpoint on this question. Catholic schools are more difficult than public schools largely because the expectations for the students are higher than they are in most public schools. On a grade-for-grade basis, the curriculum in Catholic schools is also more demanding, or perhaps more accurately, "farther along" for a given grade level. In both grade school and high school I had friends who left and went to public school, and later told me they were anywhere from a half a year to a full year ahead of the other kids in their grade in the public school. There are many variables, of course - some Catholic schools are better than others, and the best public schools I taught in were the equal of any Catholic school - those were public schools where the school and the parents had very high expectations for the students.

What separates public schools from catholic and private schools?

Public schools are free and government operated, being paid for by tax money. Private schools are paid for entirely by the parents and are not government operated, however, they do need to meet government guidelines. Catholic schools are private schools that have a Catholic religious element to them. Many people believe that private schools are better for learning, which I believe to be the case.
