Public education is provided by government agencies and private education is provided by private entities.
The increase in private education is justified more by the profits generated by a school institution than by offering quality education to users.

It is accepted that there is still a difference between public and private education in favour of private education, but when analysed by economic segment, this difference does not exist.
The National Government repowering and equipping the Public Educational Units with the aim of achieving "quality and educational warmth of the country's children and adolescents".

Private education allows the parent to choose and control more effectively the quality of the service offered by the chosen school.
