Abstract | The policy of encouraging schools to compete has been justified on the basis of raising measured levels of attainment and widening choice. In this paper the authors review the basis for this policy, utilising the economic analysis of markets with a small number of providers. They note that in such markets, typical of local school markets, increased competition may generate diverse market behaviour and identify factors likely to produce rivalry and co-operation. They then present evidence of two apparently similar local schooling markets that exhibit very different levels and types of competition. It is then shown how an assessment of the intensity of competition in a local school market depends on the particular indicators chosen. The authors review alternative interpretations for these differences in the nature of competition and relate to recent policy initiatives. (DIPF/Orig.) |
