Learning Together: The Introduction of Co-Education in French Elementary Schools
Abstract
This study examines how early-life exposure to the opposite gender shapes long-term socioeconomic outcomes by exploiting the gradual implementation of co-education in French elementary schools between 1958 and 1975. While education with both genders together (co-education) was historically limited to rural villages with single-classroom schools, a nationwide reform in 1958 allowed all schools to become co-educational. This led to a staggered adoption across departments before becoming mandatory in 1975. Using newly digitized data on the number of co-educational classrooms at the department level combined with longitudinal individual administrative data, I exploit variation in reform timing to estimate the effect of co-education exposure on educational attainment, occupational choices, and household formation.
