Achievement gap in education

The achievement gap in education refers to the persistent disparities in academic performance between different groups of students, often based on race, socioeconomic status, or other factors. These gaps mean that some students consistently perform at higher levels than others, which can affect future opportunities and overall equality. The gap is influenced by various factors like access to resources, quality of schools, and support systems. Addressing this gap involves creating equitable learning environments and providing targeted support to ensure all students have the opportunity to succeed academically.
