Resumo(s)
Using PISA data, this work project examines the contribution of family characteristics and school inputs to the inequality in Portuguese students’ academic achievement and assesses how this contribution has evolved in the last two decades. The results suggest that, consistently throughout the years, the family of the peers in the school is the main observable determinant of educational achievement. School inputs play a smaller role in explaining the variance in test scores. There is, however, a decrease in the part of the variance in test scores that is explained by these two factors. Some heterogeneity effects are observed between regions.
