Education gap widens: Low-income students fall up to 19 months behind due to pandemic absenteeism.
The Covid-19 pandemic has widened the education gap between disadvantaged and other students, with low-income children now up to 19 months behind their peers by age 16.
This disparity is largely due to increased absenteeism; 15% of primary school children in England are missing at least one in ten school days this year, up from 8% before the pandemic.
The Education Policy Institute recommends the government address the root causes of absenteeism and improve early intervention and school readiness.
