The answer is actually quite simple:
1. Teachers have their employment in public schools because that's where the money is (well, granted there isn't really that much money to begin with, but private school teachers get paid even less than public school teachers who hardly get paid anything at all); and
2. Teachers enroll their children in private school because it's a better atmosphere for a proper education. In public schools, you find a lot more overcrowding, social promotion and behavioral problems that you rarely find in private schools (parents are a lot more proactive in disciplining their children when they're forking out several thousand dollars a year in private school tuition which they could forfeit if their kid gets expelled).
Plain and simple economics; nothing more, nothing less.
