Men also significantly outearn women, all else equal, on three of four different types of school-based supplemental compensation, raising the adjusted earnings gap to 7.2 % of total school earnings. Teachers’ participation in extra duties and the likelihood of earning compensation for them differ by gender. Male teachers are both more likely to perform extra duties and receive compensation for those activities than female teachers, and the earnings gap increases when schools have a male principal.

Using within-country fixed-effect regressions, we find students have significantly lower educational expectations when GDP growth is low or negative. Assessing the heterogeneity of these relationships, we find that the expectations of students with below-average reading skills or who attend non-metropolitan schools are most strongly affected by the state of the economy.
