On your first point, it doesn't, cos schools only receive money per pupil. So it cannot help ornery schools, in fact if it "creams" the school like local grammars do it makes things worse. The school I taught in was creamed by two grammars and a few private schools. Creaming removes the incentive and/ or role models of intellingent hardworking pupils, in which case being a "boff" is seen as not being "cool" so bright kids quickly learn to disguise their abilities for fear of being bullied. This only reverses in the 6th form.
If they closed private schools today, more kids would go to normal schools tomorrow. The sovs per pupil would not rise. The gov and council would not give over more sovs. Class sizes would rise.

Scholarships/exhibitions/bursaries are a way of helping the impecunious send their offspring to them and the armed forces always helped parents or their peeps send them to them, which quite surprised me when I realised how many of my mates' dads were "Major this" or "Captain that" or even lower ranks.
But there are few scholarships in any public school, they are achieved through competitive exams and only the (yes there is usually only one) Open scholarship pays the fees in full, then there will be a couple of majors a couple of minors an exhibition or two and in my school a cash prize! which made me laugh!
But I cannot agree with you more about the unfairness of rich peeps being able to buy an educartion for their kids. This led to a full blown row with my mother, the fee-payer who asked if I wanted her to "take me away". I'd have said "yes" if it wasn't for the fact that enjoyed the activities in the school, like the sport and I hated her and didn't want to go back to living at home!
Should have done though, I'd have achieved more!
