What is the lifetime earnings return to attending a selective grammar school/realskole? Surprisingly small in UK, larger in DK. Very happy to have new paper out in @BJSociology with great team @queraltcm @VikkiBoliver @kbkarlson. Funded by @NORFACE_network https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1111/1468-4446.12856
