政策制定者面临着在提供更高水平的教育和更早进入劳动力市场之间的权衡。德国的一项基础教育改革解决了这一权衡问题，将高中教育时间减少了一年，而总教学时间保持不变。利用2002-2013年德国所有高中毕业生的行政数据，我们利用改革实施过程中的时间和地区差异，研究了改革的总体效果。我们发现，将高中课程压缩一年，平均高中毕业年龄减少了大约10个月。在高中阶段重读某一年级的概率增加了21%(3个百分点)，在毕业前的最后三年达到顶峰。不过，高中毕业率不受影响。结果表明，改革在降低毕业年龄方面取得了成功，尽管由于更高的年级重复率，它仍然没有给劳动力市场和社会保障计划带来潜在的好处。
Policy-makers face a trade-off between the provision of higher levels of schooling and earlier labour market entries. A fundamental education reform in Germany tackles this trade-off by reducing high school by one year while leaving the total instructional time unchanged. Employing administrative data on all high school graduates in 2002-2013 in Germany, we exploit both temporal and regional variation in the implementation of the reform and study the overall effectiveness of this reform. We find that compressing the high school track by one year reduces the mean high school graduation age by about 10 months. The probability to repeat a grade level in the course of high school increases by 21 percent (3 percentage points), peaking in the final three years before graduation. However, the high school graduation rate is not affected. The results indicate the reform’s success in reducing the graduation age, though it stays behind its potential benefits for labour markets and social security schemes because of higher grade repetition rates.
