SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
Education is of great social and economic benefit in helping migrants integrate into their new country, but young people from a migrant background face many barriers and disadvantage. This report examines the risk and protective factors that can undermine or promote the resilience of immigrant students, and how school and government policies can assist. It draws on data from the OECD Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA) and the European Social Survey to compare individual, family, and local factors and characteristics and compare immigrants from different backgrounds and in different host nations. Chapters include: The resilience of students with an immigrant background; Adversity and adjustment: the resilience of students with an immigrant background; Individual characteristics and the resilience of students with an immigrant background; Language barriers and the resilience of students with an immigrant background; Resilience and the socio-economic status of students with an immigrant background; How schools and education policy support or undermine student resilience; What students with an immigrant background expect in their future; and Policies and practices to support the resilience of students with an immigrant background.
