• Abstract:
  The article analyses the factors determining the preferences of local councillors to the decentralization of education. The question of whether the decentralization of education policy is a priority for local authorities is examined. We take into account both the individual features of the councillors as well as the characteristics of the municipalities. The empirical study is based on a logit model and used data collected in a survey, which was part of the BECKER project, as well as data from the Local Data Bank and the Ministry of Finance. The results indicate that in addition to factors related to the financial situation of the municipality (level of spending autonomy and wealth) and the characteristics of citizens (education, income), preferences are influenced by the fact that a councillor has a child of school age.
