Few students in high-performing school systems skip classes or days of school. For students in OECD countries, skipping classes is associated with a 32-point lower score in mathematics, while skipping days of school is associated with a 52-point lower score. Truancy is observed among all students, whether advantaged or disadvantaged.Other editions: Parallele Sprachausgabe: Absentéisme des élèves : Prévalence et conséquencesPPN: PPN: 1747694363Package identifier: Produktsigel: BSZ-13-SOC-education | ZDB-13-SOC | ZDB-13-SOC-ebookNo physical items for this record
