PASEC: Average performance gap between 6th grade students in rural and urban areas. Mathematics — every country, all years (World Bank)

Average difference between pupil scores in rural and urban areas controlling for the socioeconomic index and the territorial planning index, which is calculated based on the availability of the following infrastructure and services: a paved road; electricity; a lower secondary school; an upper secondary school; a hospital; a medical or healthcare center; a police station; a bank; a savings bank; a post office; and a cultural center or library. When urban and rural schools are located in areas with similar infrastructure and service levels as measured by the territorial planning index, the gaps between pupils’ scores tend to be smaller. Urban areas include towns and town suburbs, and rural areas include large villages (several hundred family lots) and small villages (up to one hundred family lots). These urban/rural definitions are standard across countries to facilitate the comparison of Every country, region and year the World Bank publishes for indicator LO.PASEC.MAT.6.RU.GAP (Education Statistics), delivered as a tidy table — country, ISO code, year and value — ready for analysis in Excel, R, Python or the Intigal AI workspace.
