Rule of Law is the average Rule of Law Index score for 2005–2015, z‐standardised with a mean of zero and standard deviation of 1.

n‐sizes for all models. Pupil level (n = 222,547), average pupils per country (n = 4,280), countries (n = 52).

All models include t‐1 dummies for year to account for time‐trends (not tabled).
