LSIC Housing Research Report Factsheet: Housing and Indigenous children’s education outcomes
Number of Pages2
From 2008, the LSIC has been following a cohort of Indigenous children, interviewing their families each year as they grow up. The initial sample comprised of 1,671 children from two age groups: from 6 months to 2 years and 3½ years to 5 years.
This factsheet is based on data up to Wave 13 (2020), when the children were aged 13 to 18 years. It uses NAPLAN scores from tests undertaken in grades 3, 5, 7, and 9 for the older cohort, and in grades 3, 5, and 7 for the younger cohort.
The Bankwest Curtin Economics Centre team acknowledges the Wadjuk Nyungar people as the traditional owners of the land on which the Centre is situated.
