With school results, grades, national test results, and PISA results are referred to in the current context. Within the project I have used aggregated data from Sweden’s Ministry of Education, individual data from the UGU database and from PISA 2018. The factors that I have examined are socioeconomic status (SES), migration background, cognitive abilities, non-cognitive abilities, teacher competene, and geographical position. Some of the project’s studies focus on some of these factors, but SES is included in all three articles.
