As demonstrated by human capital theory, accumulation of human capital through receiving education can increase individual incomes and may enable people to escape from poverty. However, education systems proposed by a utilitarian government exclude some individuals who cannot receive advanced education as a means of alleviating poverty. Moreover, such education systems usually expand income disparity between individuals who receive advanced education and those who do not. This study focuses on a possible situation in which education systems simultaneously enable poverty decline, correct income disparity, and maximize social welfare based on Bentham that is adopted by a utilitarian government. We then clarify a mechanism through which supporting and developing the individual educational environment can increase the quality of basic education and incomes of the poor even if they cannot receive advanced education.
