dc.description.abstractThis thesis aims to study the strategic positioning of Speech Schools in the Chilean context, using a reform in public policy to study its consequences in the legislative status of Special Schools providers and on the probability of creation of Speech Schools, where we argue that private suppliers behave as profit maximizers. Additionally, it considers an instrumental variable approach to study individual level outcomes from students enrolled in Speech Schools (exclusive education) on academic achievements and overall application set to the regular educational system. Results suggest that prior to the policy change, Speech School suppliers consider the competition in the decision to create a school and maximize the “residual” demand from students in each district. Furthermore, students from Speech Schools are less likely to apply early to the regular system, have lower academic outcomes and are less likely to apply to a Free and High-Medium quality school as a first preference in the centralized admission system. These findings highlight possible perverse incentives that result in excess supply of Special Schools and indicate long-term effects from over diagnosis of students with speech impairment.
