These results show that the effect size associated with just under one year of pre-schooling is
0.123 for the pre-reading outcome, this a little smaller than the effect of earned family income
band £17500-£27500 versus no salary income. Interestingly the effect size associated with one
year of pre-school for language outcome is significantly larger than for pre-reading, while the
impact of family income for Language is much lower.

In Table B8 we show the effect sizes for parents’ employment status. These are generally
smaller than those for family income or pre-school duration. The results reveal that parents’
employment status is significantly related to pre-reading attainment, with moderate positive
effects (controlling for other significant predictors) for both parents working. Nonetheless,
duration of pre-school has a stronger net impact.
