Özet

Educational equity is a fundamental objective in many education systems, yet challenges persist in achieving this goal, as evidenced by international large-scale assessments like PISA. This study critically examines the relationship between socioeconomic status (SES) and science literacy. Our findings indicate that grouping students based on academic achievement amplifies the achievement gap and SES disparities between different types of secondary schools. The academic stratification in secondary schools deepens the issues regarding educational inequality. Furthermore, considering substantial differences between regions regarding the SES-achievement relationship, we propose that future research and policy initiatives focusing on SES should address regional disparities.
