Notes: Results obtained from 18 separate regressions. Regressions in Panels A and B are based on 11,558 student observations and 34,674 student-subject observations from the LSYPE sample. For descriptives, see Table 2. Regressions from Panel C use the main sample. Secondary school subject specific value added is calculated in terms of age-11 to 14 growth in test score percentiles recovered from a secondary school subject fixed effect. These fixed effects have been standardised to mean zero and standard deviation one. Cohort effects are not included because the LSYPE data is only available for one cohort. Standard errors in parentheses and clustered at the secondary school level (796/3800), Significance levels *** 1%,** 5%, * 10%.
