ABSTRACTThis study investigates the determinants of school quality within public and private senior high school in Jakarta. Using individual school dataset and fixed effect panel regression technique, this paper provides an analysis of school characteristics (student-teacher ratio, teacher education level, teacher experience, school?s income, and school?s condition). This research concludes that student-teacher ratio plays an important role in student achievement. However, teacher education level, teacher experience, income of the school, and condition of the school (environment, accreditation, and building condition) do not describe the quality of education on a school. In addition, this research also provides a descriptive analysis showing inequality of exam score and graduated ? not graduated ratio based on Gini coefficient in province level.
