Abstract
A number of approaches have been tried
to improve school attendance and educational attainment,
including the use of Output-Based Aid (OBA). The challenge
of introducing OBA in education has often been finding an
appropriate definition of 'output' that balances
achievement of results with reasonable transfer of
performance risk. This review examines several OBA projects
in education and describes how they compare to other
results-based schemes. It also discusses where the OBA
approach fits in the larger spectrum of results-based
mechanisms in education, and why it can be successful.
