The findings from this article in TES are based on data from the UK Millennium Cohort Study, which tracks the lives of young people born in 2000-02. The study examined GCSE performance while accounting for factors like family income, parental occupation, and home ownership. Core Subjects Performance: Private school students in England no longer outperform state school students in GCSEs for English, maths, and science when results are adjusted for socioeconomic background. State school students actually perform better in these core subjects. Creative Arts Subjects: Despite the gap closing in core subjects, private school students continue to achieve higher results in creative arts subjects like music, drama, and art, even after adjusting for socioeconomic background. Researchers have their own thoughts about why this is. But I'm interested to hear from my own network. What do you think the reason is? What factors influence creative subjects in state schools? How can state schools improve outcomes in the creative subjects? https://lnkd.in/eURxHUBK
