Janmaat, Jan Germen

This research examines the linkages between ability grouping, classroom social and ethnic segregation, and civic competences (understood here as referring to attitudes and behaviours as well as knowledge and skills). It does so by analysing data from the International Association for the Evaluation of Educational Achievement (IEA) Civic Education Study among 14-year olds. [The research paper on which this research briefing is based: "School Systems, Segregation and Civic Competences among Adolescents" LLAKES Research Paper 5.]
