“…As noted in Section 1, there is little empirical evidence on the effects of SBM on provision of school infrastructure. Notable exceptions are Heyward, Cannon, and Sarjono (2011), who found that an SBM program implemented in Indonesia resulted in increased availability of teaching resources such as computers, textbooks, and teaching aids in participating schools, and Asim and Dee (2016), who concluded that a low-cost program aimed at increasing SBM participation in Pakistan increased the probability that boys 0 primary schools had functional school facilities such as tap water, electricity, and toilets.…”

India institutionalized school-based management in 2009 by requiring all government schools to constitute school management committees, primarily staffed by parents, that would make decisions on school-related issues. This article utilizes school-level panel data from the state of Uttar Pradesh and uses a matched difference-in-difference estimation methodology to examine the effect of this policy on the provision of basic school infrastructure and services in government schools. It finds evidence that the policy resulted in improving the provision of libraries and medical checkups for students.

“…The other factors and variables which affect the school outcomes are explained by Asim and Dee (2016), who provided evidence that how the critical school outcomes influence the entire curriculum period (e.g., Average enrolment of a student, functioning of school facilities, and teacher attendance). They primarily collected data from the publicly available school-level administration and regularly collected by the Program Monitoring and Implementation Unit (PMIU) of the Punjab School Education Department.…”

Access to quality education is the intellectual right of every child, and it was first acknowledged in December 1948 in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR). Recently, Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) and the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) reinforced the importance of education as a universal right regardless of color, language, race, gender, economic condition, and social origin. It is possible to improve the quality of education by efficiently using inputs. This study aims to measure the performance so that it can analyze how much chance of improvement is available. The total factor productivity uses the inputs and output at the district and then at the individual school student level, decomposed into its efficiency components. This study implements Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) using the DPIN software for the analysis. Panel information from 2013 to 2016 of the 112 districts is used for this study. Technical, mix, and scale mix efficiency is calculated, and the determents that can explain the difference in the performance are measured. Results show that the health and education index are the key indicators that can explain the high performance of some districts. Whereas the living standard shows a negative effort on efficiency.
