我们使用行政学生水平数据和实施各种策略来控制学生选择信仰学校,估计就读公立信仰学校对英国小学教育成就的因果效应。我们的回归控制了先前成就和居住邮政编码的固定效应,以比较居住近邻和具有相同观察能力的学生。我们还使用未来学校选择的信息来控制对信仰学校的偏好。结果显示,信仰小学的学生进步更快,但所有这些优势都是通过根据先前存在的特征和偏好将学生分类到信仰学校来解释的。
We estimate the causal effect of attending a state Faith school on primary education achievement in England using administrative student-level data and implementing various strategies to control for students’ selection into Faith schooling. Our regressions control for fixed effects in prior achievement and residential postcode to compare pupils who are close residential neighbors and have identical observable ability. We also use information on future school choices to control for preferences for Faith schooling. Results show that pupils progress faster in Faith primary schools, but all of this advantage is explained by sorting into Faith schools according to preexisting characteristics and preferences.
