dc.description.abstract | In many Western countries, children in immigrant families are considered at increased risk of
experiencing social problems and marginalisation and are often overrepresented in the care
population. How these children fare in the educational system is crucial for their future adult life.
International research over several decades has shown that many child welfare clients quit school
prematurely, but less is known about their educational progress by country of origin. Based on a
large-scale longitudinal study from Norway, this article examines early school leaving between ethnic
minority groups and the ethnic majority in the child welfare population. The results show substantial
differences in early school leaving by country of origin, even when adjusted for any differences by
gender, school grades and parental educational level. The lowest rate of early school leaving was
found among youths originating from Sri Lanka, Vietnam and Pakistan, while youths originating from
Afghanistan, South America, Morocco, Western countries and Norway (i.e. the ethnic majority) had
the highest rate of early school leaving. | en |
