You can't do that. Even in countries with hardcore marxist regimes, kids of the elite (the "party members") go to special schools.

I tend to agree. Money find a way.

But let’s me add some counter example for the sake of it.

here is public high school, with « famous »teacher and kids clearly coming from the wealthy élites.

The trick is that the selection process is so stringent that you basically have to be :

- a genious in getting excellent grade according to the French system or … - have parents that coach you to get in there.

Here is another similar public high school.

Again, I mostly agree with you point. But dépending of the country, a private education can be seen of « bad taste »
