| description |
This paper examines the impact of a
large supply-side education intervention in the Philippines,
the Third Elementary Education Project, on students'
national achievement test scores. It finds that the program
significantly increased student test scores at grades 4 to
6. The estimation indicates that two-year exposure to the
program increases test scores by about 4.5 to 5 score
points. Interestingly, the mathematics score is more
responsive to the education reform than are other subjects.
The analysis also finds that textbooks, instructional
training of teachers, and new classroom construction
particularly contributed to these outcomes. The empirical
results imply that early-stage investment improves student
performance at later stages in the elementary school cycle,
which suggests that social returns to such an investment are
greater than what the current study demonstrates. |
