a Dependent Variable: Mathematics score

b added to the zero-model

c Includes previous year’s mathematics score added to the models shown in Table 1.

d Note: previous year’s mathematics score is not available for all students, which could be related to mobility

e Final model as in Table 1 (data related to classrooms with ventilation rates > 7.1 l/s per person filtered)
