  1. Educational attainment of Muslim pupils in England and Scotland

  2. Outline of presentation • Educational attainment of Muslim pupils • Progression of pupils through school • Exclusions • Scottish and English data • Summary and comparison

  3. Methodology • Secondary analysis of large scale survey data (Scottish pupils’ survey, year; LSYPE, 2001 Census, Government statistics) • Difficulties to disentangle religion from ethnicity - 99.16% of Pakistani girls and 97.46% of Pakistani boys, 97.27% of Bangladeshi girls and 98.66% of Bangladeshi boys self-identifying as Muslim (LSYPE). • In the Scottish analysis, ethnicity is used as proxy for religion.

  15. Summary • Attainment: Overall Chinese and Indian pupils were the best performing groups and Black African, Caribbean and travellers the worst performing groups. • Progress - Muslim pupils start off well below national average – but catch up in England • However, at the age of 16 Pakistani boys in England still score well below national average – in Scotland the gap is generally smaller.

  16. Summary II • Gender difference is marked and cut across ethnicity. Notably, Pakistani girls make greater progress than Pakistani boys and overtake white girls. • Social deprivation matters – but the difference in educational attainment on the grounds of social deprivation is not as great for minority ethnic groups as for white pupils.
