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.
No, public schools in Canada are owned and operated by either provincial or territorial governments. They are funded through public funds and follow the curriculum guidelines set by the respective education ministry.
Victorian schools in the 19th century were primarily funded by a combination of government grants, private donations, and sometimes tuition fees paid by students. Additionally, charitable organizations and religious groups also played a role in funding and establishing schools during this period.
In a private school you get better education than you would in public school. But depending on what county you live in some public schools are just as good. Private schools provide more: 1. Academic challenging 2. Individual attention 3. Safety 4. Push students for college 5. Discipline -private schools are mostly for kids that usually have a hard time in public school & aren't hanging in the right society of friends and are very bright but don't know how to express it in a public school . They are way cleaner than public schools I've heard. But, in public elementary school, it is almost all free except for field trips or lunch

Like Western countries, Lebanon has secular state-funded schools and it also has private religious schools funded by local religious institutions.
'Normal' Schools are that of which are usually publicly funded and teach the pupils by the National Curriculum, this of course includes aspects of Religious Studies. A wide range of students attend (depending in catchment area) which could potentially include many pupils from a variety of faiths. A Faith School is the same as other schools with the National Curriculum, however, they have a stronger religious ethos and emphasize on the morals and values and individual should have. They also incorporate religious activities into their daily routine, i.e Muslim Faith School make time for Prayer (Salaah), or Catholic Schools with singing Hymns and reading from the Bible during Assemblies.

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.

In Australia : All schools were originally funded by the government, it was not until the year 1872 that it all schools become secular, compulsory and free. This left catholic and other religions in a fix. Therefore parents scraped together fees and classes were taught in old sheds or barn yards.
