Schooling is of paramount importance, as the authors have dedicated over twenty-five years to measuring a crucial aspect of education: the curriculum. This research aims to provide a nuanced comparative education study by examining seventeen international studies on mathematics and science. These studies encompass various measures of students' family and home backgrounds while focusing on the substance of the curriculum they study. It has been established that a strong relationship exists between the curriculum and student performance. Furthermore, these studies have revealed the interconnectedness of student background and curriculum, emphasizing the significance of schooling in shaping students' knowledge and abilities in mathematics and science.
Student background plays a pivotal role in determining their learning opportunities and achievements. However, it is noteworthy that schooling can have an even greater impact on their development. By providing a comprehensive education that encompasses both academic knowledge and personal growth, schools and schooling can empower students to reach their full potential and contribute positively to society.
In conclusion, the authors firmly believe that schooling matters and that the curriculum is a fundamental component of education. Through their research, they have demonstrated the importance of student background and curriculum in shaping students' knowledge and abilities in mathematics and science. It is essential to continue investing in quality education to ensure that all students have the opportunity to thrive and achieve their aspirations.
