As global migration flows increase, so do the number of migrant students in host country schools. Yet migrants' achievement scores lag well behind those of their native-born schoolmates. Performance gaps are explained largely by differences in migrant parents' socio-economic background, cultural...

Research on immigrants' educational disadvantages largely focuses on differences in student achievement tests. Exploiting data from the German PIRLS extension, we find that second-generation immigrants face additional disadvantages with respect to grades and teacher recommendations for secondary...

We study whether early tracking of students based on ability increases migrant-native achievement gaps. To eliminate confounding impacts of unobserved country traits, we employ a differences-in-differences strategy that exploits international variation in the age of tracking as well as student...

En Amérique du Nord, les étudiants dont les parents ont émigré obtiennent en général un meilleur niveau d’études que ceux dont les parents sont nés au Canada. En Europe, on constate l’inverse. Au Canada, les étudiants de parents immigrants (de 1re ou de 2e génération) suivent des...
