Note: ‘Active resources’ include online classes, video conferencing and online chat. ‘Other resources’ include online platforms, home‐learning packs, emails with information and other resources. ‘Computer or tablet as needed’ is an indicator that takes the value 1 if the child's main device to access school work is a computer or tablet that is always available or available most of the time, and the value 0 otherwise. ‘Own dedicated study space’ is an indicator that takes the value 1 if the child has a desk or dedicated space for studying for him/herself and 0 otherwise. All regressions also include a full set of age dummies, number of siblings, and indicators for whether the child lives in a lone‐parent household and whether he/she is the oldest. All regressions are weighted using the weights described in Section II. Standard errors are given in parentheses. *** p<0.01, ** p<0.05, * p<0.1.
