🟣Go bhfuil nasc lĂĄidir idir saibhreas/bochtaineacht agus cĂ© chomh maith agus a Ă©irĂ­onn le pĂĄistĂ­ i rĂ©imsĂ­ na lĂ©itheoireachta agus na matamaitice.

📱Today marks the launch of Report 10 in the Children’s School Lives (CSL) study:

đŸ«Primary School Matters: Everyday Living and Learning in Children’s School Lives.

🔱The CSL study, involving almost 4,000 children across 184 primary schools, provides a unique insight into children’s everyday experiences of schooling.

📊CSL Report 10 brings together findings from across Reports 1-9 to identify the factors that influence children’s learning most in school. It draws on findings from the five years of the study, examining children’s learning outcomes, and what shapes them.

👧👩The report looks at what schools and classrooms are like, and at the everyday ways learning and teaching happen within them.

CSL Report 10 findings show:
🟣Children from more well-off families report higher wellbeing than those who experience poverty.
🟣Wider societal structures, school composition and local context actively shape classroom learning cultures.
🟣A strong link between wealth/poverty and how well children do with reading and mathematics. For example, children in DEIS schools and those experiencing poverty achieve lower results in Standardised Tests (Mathematics and Reading).
