[x] McNabb2018 - regional and gender inequalities in school attendance
- looks at attendance rates and its determinants
- results:
- high increases in attendance since 1990s
- important determinants: richer HHs, Christian religion, educated HHHs more likely to have children enrolled in school
- gender disparities persist:
- girls less likely to attend, adopted girls at greatest disadvantage
- opportunity costs higher for boys working along school than girls
- distance mattered more for boys working in field than domestic work
[x] Gruijters2020 - learning inequality of poor and rich
- looks at correlation of family socioeconomic status and learning outcomes
- data from 10 francophone African countries
- standardized mathematics and reading competence end of primary school
- results:
- outcomes both poor and highly stratified
- 3 determinants within family socioeconomic status, but little effect overall:
- educational resources at home
- health/well-being
- differences in school quality
- most effect comes from differing school quality (unequal distribution of resources teachers, textbooks) and high socio-economic segregation between schools
[x] WorldBank2022a - Learning poverty
- looks at Learning Poverty Indicator formed of 'Schooling Deprived' (out-of-school) children and 'Learning Deprived' (below minimum proficiency) children
- results:
- 56% of children late primary age not proficient in reading
- 55% of children do not achieve minimum proficiency level at end of primary school
- 3% of primary school-aged children are not enrolled in school
- does not disaggregate rural/location-based, can not disaggregate gender (missing data in Benin, except learning deprivation 56.1% boys, 52.8% girls) etc.
