孟母三迁有理!外媒称环境对教育至关重要!

2016-02-06来源:每日邮报

Children’s performance at school is more dependent on the area in which they grow up than parental income, a new study suggests.
一项新研究证明,儿童在学校里的学习成绩更容易受成长环境的影响,而不是受父母收入的影响。

The Social Market Foundation has found that location is now a much bigger influence on children’s achievement than it was for previous generations.
社会市场基金会发现,成长环境对儿童的学业成绩有着非常大的影响力,重要性远大于父母对儿童的影响力。

Researchers examined test results of youngsters born in 1970 and 2000 and found regional differences have become much greater over the last 30 years.
研究者调查了出生在1970年和2000年的人群学业成绩,发现在过去的30年中,区域差异的重要性尤为突出。

The study found that social background had a bigger impact on achievement than location in 1970 in comparison with today.
研究人员发现,相较于当下,1970年的时候,社会背景的影响力高于儿童的成长环境。

The research found that in 2013-14, 70 per cent of 16-year-olds in London gained five good GCSEs compared with 63 per cent in Yorkshire and Humber, with such inequalities persisting - and in some cases worsening - over the past three decades.
研究人员发现,在2013-2014年之间,居住在伦敦的16岁上下的青少年中,有70%在五门中学会考中获得高分。而在约克郡和亨伯则只有63%,这种学科成绩上的差距在过去30年间一直顽存——在某些年份中差距甚至更大。

Family background and income remain important, but the study suggests that ‘the geographic area a child comes from has become a more powerful predictive factor’.
家庭背景和家庭收入仍然是很重要的因素,但与此同时,研究表明“儿童成长的地理位置已经成为更具影响性的先决因素。”
