英国于1993年启动了专门学校方案。根据该计划，学校向中央政府提交一份投标书，以专注于特定的课程领域。为了获得参与资格，他们必须筹集私人赞助，以支付其发展计划的费用，并设定目标，包括学生成绩的目标。本文采用多元线性回归和多层次模型来检查学生的成绩。我们的证据表明，在2001年，特殊学校的学生比非特殊学校的学生取得了更好的考试成绩，而那些参加早期特殊学校的学生表现得特别好。我们还认为，一些专科学校的队列实现增强GCSE成绩之前，他们成为专科学校，但也，对于早期的队列，在考试成绩的改善与专家地位增加了学校已成为该计划的一部分，为更长的时间。对GCSE专业和非专业学科领域成绩的分析表明，语言和体育学院在其专业领域取得了比预期更好的考试成绩，技术学院在专业和非专业领域都取得了更好的成绩，但艺术学院在专业或非专业学科方面没有取得显着不同的成绩。
The Specialist Schools Programme was launched in England in 1993. Under the programme, schools submit a bid to central government to specialise in specified curriculum areas. To qualify to participate they must raise private sponsorship to contribute to the cost of their development plans and set targets, including targets for pupils' attainment. The paper uses multiple linear regression and multi‐level modelling to examine pupils' attainment. Our evidence suggests that, in 2001, pupils at Specialist Schools achieved better examination results than pupils at non‐specialist schools and that those attending the earlier cohorts of Specialist Schools performed particularly well. We also suggest that some cohorts of Specialist Schools were achieving enhanced GCSE results before they became Specialist Schools but also that, for the earlier cohorts, the improvement in examination results associated with specialist status increased as schools had been part of the programme for a longer period. Analysis of GCSE results in specialist and non‐specialist subject areas indicated that Language and Sports Colleges achieved better than expected examination results in their specialist areas, Technology Colleges achieved better results in both specialist and non‐specialist areas but that Arts Colleges did not achieve significantly different results in either specialist or non‐specialist subjects.
