| Summary: | This article aims to contribute to the current debate on the optimal regulation of school choice in the Brussels Capital Region. We first summarize the current regulatory framework and make the distinction between the political objectives pursued by the regulation of school choice, and the procedure that implements these objectives. We argue that these two aspects can be analyzed separately. We then describe the specific challenges that the Region faces as far as school choice is concerned. Next, we analyze two scenarios consisting of a set of political objectives for school choice regulation in Brussels and a possible ranking among those. These political objectives echo some of the objectives for school choice regulation mentioned in the public debate but are tailored to the specific needs of the Region. Finally, we describe a procedure that implements these objectives. The exercise illustrates the type of arbitrage public decision makers need to make and several key practical aspects of the implementation. |
