Note: The coefficients for ‘Active school resources’, ‘Home study space’ and ‘Computer or tablet availability’ add up to the difference between the coefficients for ‘Earnings rank’ in the corresponding second and third columns of each panel in Tables 4 and 5 up to rounding error. Standard errors are given in parentheses. *** p<0.01, ** p<0.05, * p<0.1.
