@yloxford sorry I tagged the wrong younglives.

[Jenn @JOkaebea]

Using @YoungLives data, this paper shows that students in schools using English as a medium of instruction have lower mathematics test scores compared to mother tongue education students.

[Jenn @JOkaebea]

So whilst the main results support the prolonged utilization of mother tongue instruction, there is not one optimal language policy for multilingual contexts—social and political contexts matter!

[Jenn @JOkaebea]

@SportsGuyLwazi Thanks my friend :)
