What are the determinants and effects of school choice? An international comparison between Australia and the UK

该项目将更清楚地说明学校选择的决定因素，特别是经济现象对这种选择的影响。 对澳大利亚来说，这将意味着我们对过去30年私立学校学生增长的相互竞争的解释有了更好的理解：政府补贴的作用;人口变化的作用;收入不平等加剧的影响;以及对私立学校的偏好变化的作用。 这一信息将为今后在这一领域制定政策提供更好的证据基础。

The project will provide a clearer picture of the determinants of school choice, most notably the impact of economic phenomena on that choice. For Australia, this will mean we have a better understanding of the competing explanations of the growth of students at private schools over the past three decades: the role of government subsidies; the role of demographic changes; the effects of increased income inequality; and the role of changes in preferences towards private schools. This information will provide a better evidence base for future policy development in this area.
