Inequalities in Presence of a School Funding Formula: The 15-year Free Education Program in Thailand The data used in this paper comes from a combined Public Expenditure Tracking Survey (PETS) and Quantitative Service Delivery Survey (QSDS) organized by UNICEF in 2015-2016. The sample of primary and secondary schools is made of 190 primary and 50 secondary schools, as well as data on student results, teachers and households averaged at the school level.

All the data in this analysis (and the more that we ended up not using) is combined from publicly available resources and we will gladly share the data for all interested researchers as an excel file through IJED or corresponding author’s own website.

We examine the relationship between schooling completed and mathematics learning from 2000 to 2014 by developing learning profiles for Indonesia. The data we use come from the Indonesian Family Life Survey (IFLS), an on-going longitudinal survey in Indonesia. The sample is representative of about 83% of the Indonesian population and contains over 30,000 individuals living in 13 of the 27 provinces in the country. The IFLS surveys and their procedures were properly reviewed and approved by IRBs (Institutional Review Boards) in the United States (at RAND) and in Indonesia at the University of Gadjah Mada (UGM). We use the third (2000), fourth (2007) and fifth (2014) IFLS rounds.
