Unpacking Education Production Pipeline: Government Spending, Allocation of Funds, and Household Invested

Sat, April 13, 7:45 to 9:15am, Philadelphia Marriott Downtown, Floor: Level 5, Salon J

Session Type: Paper Session

Abstract

In this highlighted session, we present a wide range of analyses of issues in education finance. These analyses span two countries - US and China, and focus on K-12 education. Three of the papers investigate the relationship between school contextual factors, student demographics and school spending and two other studies explore the trade-offs between household investment in education and government funding. All five studies demonstrate the complementarity of investment from different sources and show the importance of allocative efficiency for funding decisions.
