Statistical Analysis Of Government Expenditure Efficiency On Basic Education In Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei Urban Agglomeration

To build a high-quality education system and promote people’s overall development are highly recommended in the Fourteenth Five-Year Plan.Moreover,China’s Education Modernization 2035 claims to increase the general public budget education expenditure year by year.Therefore,how to take full advantage of education investment has become an extremely urgent problem to be resolved.Since the planning and construction of Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei Urban Agglomeration,education plays an important role in public service,which is related to regional people’s livelihood and future development.In addition,the coordinated development of regional education has attracted more attention.It has become an essential part for the coordinated development of education to promote the high-quality and balanced development of basic education in the region.Therefore,this paper manages to analyze the development tendency of basic education expenditure efficiency of Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei Urban Agglomeration in the past decade,and further explores the potential influence factors.To facilitate the development of basic education of local governments,this study aims to explore the management of basic education in Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei Urban Agglomeration from the expenditure efficiency aspect,and provides policies and measures to improve the existing problems.Based on studying relevant research and theories,this paper adopts the panel data of 13 cities in Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei Urban Agglomeration from 2010 to 2019.After which,the paper successively selects the super efficiency DEA model and Malmquist index model to calculate the static and dynamic efficiency of the city selected,and further uses the panel Tobit model to analyze the possible influence factors of the expenditure efficiency for government basic education.Result shows that the gap between the government expenditure efficiency on basic education in BeijingTianjin-Hebei Urban Agglomeration first narrowed and then widened in case of static efficiency,and the total factor productivity of Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei Urban Agglomeration fluctuates as a whole in case of dynamic efficiency,indicating that pure technical efficiency hinders the improvement of efficiency.In addition,in terms of factors influencing efficiency,fiscal selfsufficiency,government scale and urbanization level have a significant positive impact on the government basic education expenditure efficiency,while fiscal revenue,expenditure structure and economic development level go on the contrary.The uncertain influence effect of demographic factors indicates that,currently,the government should abandon the extensive development model of basic education and turn to the development of improving management level.Finally,this paper gives policy suggestions from following three aspects.Establishing a demand-oriented decisionmaking mechanism for the supply of basic education,optimizing the use and management mechanism of government basic education funds,and promoting the sharing mechanism of basic education resources in Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei Urban Agglomeration.
