Inequalities in maternal education transmitted to children reflected in test scores. Gaps persist through childhood. New @worldbank1.bsky.social hdl.handle.net/10986/44282 report cites @yloxford.bsky.social longitudinal 4 country evidence from ages 5-15.
20+ years. 4 countries. 12,000 children.

The World Bank agrees.
