Well, they're answerable to the public in that parents can take the kids to another school if things aren't working out. And since they're paid a certain dollar amount per warm body, the school has a pretty direct feedback loop.

And since they're paid a certain dollar amount per warm body, the school has a pretty direct feedback loop." Indeed, this is exactly why British private schools like Eton are called "public schools," because anyone can attend if they have the money. But in the US we use a different definition.
