Schooling matters. The authors' professional pursuits for over
twenty-five years have been focused on measuring one key aspect of
schooling: the curriculum - what students are expected to study and
what they spend their time studying. This documents their
conviction that schools and schooling play a vital and defining
role in what students know and are able to do with respect to
mathematics and science. This research examines seventeen
international studies of mathematics and science to provide a
nuanced comparative education study. Whilst including multiple
measures of students' family and home backgrounds, these studies
measure the substance of the curriculum students study which has
been shown to have a strong relationship with student performance.
Such studies have demonstrated the interrelatedness of student
background and curriculum. Student background influences their
opportunities to learn and their achievements, yet their schooling
can have even greater significance.
