Abstract
We investigate the medium-term effects of the coronavirus-related school closures in Switzerland on students’ self-perceived risk of school failure. We test whether these affected students differently depending on their families’ socioeconomic resources. We draw on a sample of students aged 14 to 25 from the Swiss Household Panel (SHP) and find no medium-term change in students’ risk of school failure due to the school closures. This finding did not vary by family socioeconomic background.
