I thought these things didn't occur. It's horrible to see how even the school tried to single you out in small things that were so stupid. The coffee thing or the uniform seem to be just to remind you you don't really belong there despite the fact academically you were much more fit to be there. It could be a good take on social class and how difficult it is to pass from one to the other.
Thank you so much for making this video! This feels illegal to watch because it feels like I'm watching an undercover video on some "secret society" for rich people we'll never hear about. I'm shocked that snobs like those people actually exist.
Obviously no one can help it if they are just born into money and privilege that doesn’t bother me as long as they are humble kind and show appreciation for what they have
Watched a documentary on independent vs state schools and looked up independent schools in my country and the curriculum, after school clubs, etc seemed to honestly align with the tuition rates being that academia was being offered in various ways at advanced but fun levels. THEN fell into looking at independent schools abroad, falling upon the most expensive private institutions in the Swiss alps (Le Rosey, Beau something something) and their curriculum and daily agendas did not AT ALL align with what I saw being offered in other private schools but were double/triple the price in tuition costs. Then seen the lawsuit with the Oswals and this video just confirmed, I'm sure the education they offer there is great, but the parents aren't paying that price for the curriculum. That price is for networking, prestige, status, and boarding their kids far far away. All of this to explain why these schools have amazing outdoor resort type, thrill seeking extra curriculars, but their academic curriculums don't seem more advanced, diverse, or challenging than any other "elite" private school in the states that would offer that same level of education at a sizable fraction of the price.
i grew up mainly in nyc and went to dalton in the 00’s & 10’s and spent a three yr period during my middle school yrs at aiglon college in switzerland and pretty much everything you’ve said about private/boarding schools is accurate to my experience growing up. i wasn’t a scholarship student and ur observations apply more to the swiss baording school i went to than dalton, which tends to be more progressive and informal, but the overall themes are the same. i do remember how the parents of my one friend from dalton would always tell us to offer to pay for everything for any of the scholarship kids we hung out with, like if we went out somewhere. which was well meaning, but i don’t think they understood how patronizing and elitist that might come off lol.
This is fascinating, thank you for sharing your experience! My education policy teacher asked us to take a look at your videos, you've got a lot of great information! The way the rich students act makes sense, but I'm surprised/disappointed that the school treated scholarship students differently and some of the parents' attitudes towards scholarship students are rude. I would hope the school would be just as excited to have scholarship students as well as non scholarship ones? So frustrating. Sending thanks for your content from the U.S. :)
Use it as motivation ; I use to be a pool boy for wealthy families . Literally cleaned the pool. Now I work in tech . Still haven’t hit my big goal (I ship a lot of apps ) but I’m getting close.
I always wonder why the ultra-rich even send their kids to k-12 schools. Why not hire a team of specialized tutors so your kids get individualized attention and bespoke knowledge on how business and politics work at the top level? They can still apply to university as a homeschooling student. Thank you for your video, very insightful 😊
Kids are sent to these schools so they can make hundreds of contacts with other kids from wealthy families. As they say, it's not what you know, it's who you know. Also, I'm just guessing that many of these families are happy to have their kids away from home for most of the year.
You're a very observant and intelligent individual, so you likely know this anyway. But money (being rich) is only one way to make someone's life "happy and successful". For others it's relationships built on love, emotional closeness and trust. Then, for some it's finding true calling in life, or creating a family and raising happy and healthy kids, or living for a greater purpose - making a difference in lives of others.. and so on. In societies that those rich kids are from.. Trust in relationships is extremely rare.. you must noticed - relationships are glued on values of benefit... and no marriage is consummated without a legal contract or pre-nuptuals.. Kids are raised literally by teachers.. in boarding schools - not their parents at home and etc. Life is different for them. You might be richer than all of them in so many other ways, in ways that money cannot buy. Relationships within your family, your health, your life experience, your intellectual intelligence, emotional intelligence, circle of true friends and etc... And that is something worth holding on to. Because that is priceless. ❤️ Thank you for sharing your experience. I'm sure, you've learned a lot from it, and it will benefit your life in many ways.
boarding schools in USA are super strict if you get caught drinking.. My friend at a boarding school in swiss said they went to a nightclub and they saw this other kids dad there partying too LOL.
I imagine a lot of people go to these fancy schools to make the right connections. I assume it’s convenient to have loaded influencial friends when you’re starting a business
I’m not against private schools in general, but such elitism is dangerous for society and should not be allowed, in my opinion. What is this teaching to students who will have money and be in positions of power because of it?

i know im a bit late but honestly this video helps alot considering the fact i may be go to the going to the swiss alps to school there the fees are very expensive and if the academics were extremely good my parents would pay but hearing that the academics arent challenging is a huge let down a school shouldnt only be comfy and fun but academics should also be equal as a balance if there is any reasonably priced boarding school in switzerland i would sincerely appreciate it if you could recommend some to me please if you see this thanks!
Actually a very small percentage of them are actually Swiss. One of the unique things about Swiss boarding schools is that they are mainly from all over the world and they are very diverse :)
Cool thanks letting us know you're experienced in having a scholarship from a millionaire family MS HOTTIE you're awesome 😎👍. Keep up your content it's like doing an ethnography because I'm a Sociology and Anthropology major so it's similar to what I do.
13:23 my ex boyfriend went to a private boarding school in England (we are German) and he said that everyone was super nice and communal but he also mentioned some things like that. There was for example a weekly dinner all students had to attend in suits and dresses. My ex was glad that he wasn’t the only one who didn’t have a suit with him so he wouldn’t have to buy one on his own but the other guys all went to really expensive boutiques for it and one guy bought two suits from Dior of which only one ended up fitting him so he just gifted the other to one of the other students instead just giving it back because he „wasn’t up for the hassle it would cause“. My ex wasn’t a scholar and he had a great time and met really nice people but all in all you could definitely notice what kind of a different world private education is. I also went to a private day school here in Germany and since I wasn’t really with the other students 24/7 it didn’t feel as extreme for me but I still think that some of the things that go down are quite out of touch.

@My Andrew shut up, useless brat.
@Expf4578 prove you're rich otherwise you're all talk no show
Its not illegal. Don't blame the rich if they are rich and enjoy their highend lifstyle.

ofcourse i have never fallen behind 3rd place in school and my school is very challenging@LewisKillar
since a lot of them would have been swiss, would students from other countries feel left out or anything?
Actually a very small percentage of them are actually Swiss. One of the unique things about Swiss boarding schools is that they are mainly from all over the world and they are very diverse :)
