Findings reveal in-school discrimination reduces academic outcomes in adolescents, highlighting its harm.
Two profiles showed high discrimination from either in-school or out-of-school sources, one showed frequent discrimination from all sources, and one reported low levels overall. Adolescents in profiles experiencing in-school discrimination from teachers and classmates had lower academic outcomes than those experiencing infrequent or out-of-school social class discrimination. Findings highlight that in-school social class discrimination may be particularly detrimental to self-reported performance and socio-emotional academic outcomes.
