Parents' Motives for Choosing a Privatized Public School System: An Israeli Example

In recent years, Israel has seen the growth of a movement calling for greater parental choice and more diversity in the public school system. This article examines the state-supported TALI (or reinforcing Jewish studies) schools, which were created in response to the public demand for an alternative to the public orthodox and secular schools. The study on which this article is based looked at the motives behind parental choice and at the effects of parental choice on the social and cultural composition of student populations. The Israeli case is compared with characteristics and outcomes in the Netherlands, Japan, and Australia.
