Abstract:
The education of migrant children critically determines the level of human capital of Chinas future labour force. The majority of migrant children in Chinese cities now study in public schools. This paper uses self-collected data to evaluate the performance of migrant students in public elementary schools. We find that across schools, migrant students with better family background enter into schools with higher quality. Within the same schools, migrant students perform as well as their local counterparts, in both cognitive and non-cognitive dimensions. Our results suggest that there is no evidence of within-school discrimination against migrant students within public schools, and the key to improving their education is access to better schools.
