Public education is education mandated for or offered to the children of the general public by the government , whether national, regional, or local, provided by an institution of civil government, and paid for, in whole or in part, by taxes . The term is generally applied to basic education, K -12 education or primary and secondary education: it is rarely, if ever, applied to post-secondary education, advanced education, or universities, colleges, or technical schools. Public education is inclusive, both in its treatment of students and in that enfranchisement for the government of public education is as broad as for government generally. Public education is often organized and operated to be a deliberate model of the civil community in which it functions.

Public education is schooling provided for the general public by the government , whether national or local, and paid for by taxes , which leads to it often being called state education . Schools provided under such a system are called public schools in many countries, but in England the term "public school" refers to an elite of privately funded independent schools which had their origins in medieval schools funded by charity to provide education for the poor.

Public education is schooling provided by the government , and paid for by taxes . Public education emerged in the early 19th century as a tool of industrialisation and still uses mass production techniques to achieve its ends. Proponents of public education assert it to be necessary because of the need in modern society for people who are capable of reading , writing , and doing basic mathematics . However, some libertarians argue that education is best left to the private sector; in addition, advocates of alternative forms of education such as unschooling argue that these same skills can be achieved without subjecting children to state-run compulsory schooling. In most industrialized countries, these views are distinctly in the minority.
