SHOCK: Study Finds Discipline, Not Money, Makes Students Do Better

A new study has found that discipline, not money, is the best indicator of school performance.
“Monetary investment in education is not sufficient to boost educational performance,” said Associate Professor Chris Baumann, a co-author of the study, which was featured in the International Journal of Educational Management. “Discussion of education policy often centers on funding, but the study now establishes that a much more effective ‘tool’ to improve education performance and ultimately the competitiveness of a nation, is to focus on school discipline.”
The authors suggest that disrespect for teachers and distraction in the classroom lead to wasted time and, therefore, less learning. The study argues that enhancing school discipline requires a negligible amount of spending. Competitiveness also increases alongside discipline.
