Economic commentary [October 2024]

Research output: Contribution to journalArticle

Abstract

Using data from the Scottish Government summary statistics for schools (2022) and recorded outdoor air pollution levels for NOx and PM2.5 (DEFRA, 2022), this report investigates how outdoor air quality varies for schools in Glasgow, focusing on the disparities experienced by different socio-economic groups.
The primary objective is to understand how socio-economic factors, such as deprivation levels, special needs status, and ethnic makeup, influence the air quality experienced by students. The analysis aims to reveal whether these socio-economic factors correlate with poorer air quality, thereby highlighting potential inequalities.
