Resourcing schools to address educational disadvantage

Korte inhoud:Ireland demonstrates strong performance in reading, mathematics and science, and equity outcomes internationally across primary and post-primary levels. Moreover, the socio-economic gap in educational attainment is narrower than on average across OECD countries. The education system outperforms many other countries and exhibits above-average socio-economic fairness and equity. However, despite these accomplishments, differences in outcomes persist for students from disadvantaged backgrounds, and Traveller and Roma students. Similar to other countries, gender gaps are also visible, particularly at the post-primary level. Despite improvements over the last decade, gaps between DEIS and non-DEIS schools persist. The report suggests pathways for further improvement.
