In the UK private and public schools are both fee-paying schools, while state funded schools are usually referred to as comprehensives.

  I’m far from an expert but I believe private schools can basically teach as they see fit, don’t have to follow the curriculum etc, while public schools follow the state guidelines still while being fee-paying.
