De quinto de primaria al fin de la secundaria en seis años: un estudio longitudinal en Puno

This study presents the results of a longitudinal follow up of 304 children from urban and rural Puno. Students were in 5th grade elementary school in 2000 and should have been in 5th grade of high school (last) in 2006, when they were again surveyed. We contacted 76% of the original sample; most of the remaining children, according to friends and relatives, had for the most part migrated outside Puno. From those we interviewed, 69% had advanced to the end of secondary without repeating, 13% had dropped out and the remaining had repeated one or more grades. The results suggest that mathematics achievement in 2000 was a significant predictor of achievement in math and reading comprehension in 2006, as well as the chances of the child advancing grades without repeating. On the other hand, drop-out was mostly associated with the need of the students to work. The results of the study suggest the need to develop mechanisms to reinforce the achievement of children in impoverished areas and/or with lower achievement in early grades, given that while they are not discriminated actively in schools, they are also not supported in ways to overcome specific needs.
