Abstract

In this work, we focus on the potential links between place of residence of young people and their school achievement. We want to show that local context plays an important role, as well as individual or family characteristics. We mobilize French employment survey in order to study behaviours of 15 year olds between 1990 and 2002 and followed two years. We analyze the effect of living in a neighbourhood defined as more or less ?deprived? on the likelihood of repeat a year. We test the effect of different characteristics of the neighbourhood on school achievement of young people but also the existence of threshold effects. We run instrumental variables regressions to control for endogeneity of location place. All other things being equal, our results plead for the existence of a negative effect of the local context on likelihood of repeat a year, for young people living in the most ?deprived? neighbourhoods. Classification JEL : I21, J24.
