This paper examines inequality patterns
of school and teacher resources as well as student
performance in the Philippines. School and teacher
resources, measured by pupil classroom and teacher ratios
and per-pupil teacher salary, became more unequal over time.
Strikingly, a large portion of the variation is attributed
to their within-division distributions, especially the
non-city areas in each province (rural schools), where pupil
classroom and teacher ratios have significantly positive
returns in terms of student test scores. Concavity built
into the education production function implies that
reallocation of teachers and classrooms within a division
can potentially increase average test scores. The estimates
also imply that it is optimal to deploy young, inexperienced
teachers to rural schools and reassign them to urban schools
when the teachers are more experienced.
