Abstract	Reforms in many countries have attempted to increase the degree of conpetition in school markets. The partial implementation of market solutions has not always produced the uniform, system-wide rise in educational standards anticipated. In this paper the authors analyse schooling markets outcomes utilizing a simple model of the type of the local market created in England and Wales. Regulatory authorities and researchers have noted that within local schooling markets these reforms have been associated with an increase in the diversity of school performance. Pre-existing school hierarchies have often been reinforced rather than challenged. [The study shows] that both promotion of an indicator of school performance based upon unadjusted pupil attainment and the presence of peer group effects can generate these market outcomes.
