Описание: School attendance is not a perfect measure of socio-economic background. But it is information on an MPs’ background that is relatively widely available, and which can give us a crucial insight into the social and economic circumstances they grew up in. Private school attendance, in particular, is strongly related to family income, with attendance rates close to 0% of children at most income levels, and rates only rising above 10% for those in families on the top 5% of incomes. For those who do attend from lower income families, housing wealth often enables their attendance, [1] with just 1% of independent school pupils having their whole fees paid for by bursaries or scholarships, and just 5% having more than half of their fees covered by financial support.
