Abstract
This study employs the Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) technique, an efficiency model, to measure public schools in Thailand. Data came from 455 public upper secondary schools in Northern Thailand. The results reveal that the schools mostly operate inefficiently. To ascertain the efficiency measures, sensitivity analysis reveals the robustness of the resulting efficiency measures on efficiency. Policy to improve school efficiency may thus consider using efficiency-based analysis for measuring school performance to identify which school will yield higher marginal returns to prioritize inefficient schools for treatment, in addition to allocating budget based on block grants or enrolments.
