C vector = a simultaneous deprivation score for each child, which is a weighted sum of overlapping deprivations. For the dimension that the excluded indicator belongs to, the weight for each of the other two indicators is 1.5/12. For the dimensions that no indicator is excluded, the weight for each indicator remains to be 1/12. All models cluster the standard errors at the school level to adjust for intra-school correlations. MPI poor = H: Headcount ratio or incidence of multidimensional poverty (MPI). For the dimension that the excluded indicator belongs to, the weight for each of the other two indicators is 1.5/12. For the dimensions that no indicator is excluded, the weight for each indicator remains to be 1/12. All models cluster the standard errors at the school level to adjust for intra-school correlations
