Solid Foundations and the Transition to Post-Primary School
REFNo: SS359ES
This proposed study will:
1. extend a longitudinal dataset of students who were participants in a randomised literacy intervention during grades 1-4, as they transition out of primary school and into their adolescence years;
2. measure the effects of foundational literacy skills in primary school – due to the intervention – on primary school completion, secondary school enrolment, and learning outcomes (also measure labor market participation, aspirations, motivation, and other measures of well-being);
3. compare the differential effects of two versions of delivery of the literacy program (a full-cost version and a lower-cost version) to estimate the differences in cost- effectiveness; and
4. compare two levels of exposure to the program (one year vs. four years) to estimate the differences in cost-effectiveness. The project will follow 5,348 students in two cohorts to grades 6/7.
