Projectomschrijving

The aim of the project is to investigate whether characteristics of primary school contribute to the explanation of educational choices at the transition from primary to secondary education. Educational choices are usually explained by invoking ascribed and acquired characteristics of pupils. We want to contribute to the hiatus in research by adding charachteristics of the primarry school to the explanation.
