What is a "school voucher"?
A school voucher is a government-funded certificate that parents can use to pay for their child’s education at a private or alternative school instead of sending them to a public school. The voucher covers part or all of the tuition fees, depending on the value of the voucher and the cost of the chosen school. The idea behind school vouchers is to give parents more choice in their child’s education and encourage competition among schools to improve quality. However, the system is debated, with some arguing it benefits certain students more than others.
Example
The government introduced a school voucher program to increase school choice for families.
She applied for a school voucher to enroll her child in a private school.
The debate over school vouchers centers on their impact on public education funding.
