It’s alright for some: Are the effects of school exclusion heterogeneous?
23 Jan 2025, 15:00 – 16:00
In this seminar, Andrew estimates the direct effects of school exclusion on pupils’ academic achievement as well as whether they are heterogeneous by pupils’ socio-economic status (SES). The research looks at exclusion and achievement, sibling fixed effects, and population-wide data on English secondary pupils.
His findings suggest there is a negative relationship between exclusion and achievement where experiencing exclusion is associated with a decrease in the probability of achieving at school – though there was no evidence of the negative effects of exclusion being greater for lower-SES pupils.
This event will be particularly useful for researchers and policymakers.
