The findings show that students in Albania, Algeria, Canada, Denmark, the Dominican Republic, Georgia, Indonesia, Jordan, Kosovo, Lebanon, Mexico, Moldova, Peru, Portugal, Qatar, the Russian Federation (hereafter “Russia”), Sweden, Tunisia, Turkey, the United Arab Emirates, and the United States experience EBST more frequently. All of these countries have an average on the index which is more than 0.25 of a standard deviation higher than the OECD average. In contrast, Austria, Beijing-Shanghai-Jiangsu-Guangdong (China) (hereafter “B-S-J-G [China]”), Finland, Japan, Korea, Netherlands, Spain and Chinese Taipei are among the countries with limited reliance on EBST. In fact, in 27 countries EBST is more frequently experienced by students in disadvantaged schools (i.e. schools in the bottom 25% of the PISA index of economic, social and cultural status [ESCS]) compared with students in the top quarter of ESCS.
