In this sense the metric used - the degree of bottom-end inequality in child well-being - is a measure of the progress being made towards a fairer society.īringing in data from the majority of OECD countries, the report attempts to show which of them are allowing children to fall behind by more than is necessary in education, health and material well-being (using the best performing countries as a minimum standard for what can be achieved). In each case and for each country, the question asked is ‘how far behind are children being allowed to fall?’ The report argues that children deserve the best possible start, that early experience can cast a long shadow, and that children are not to be held responsible for the circumstances into which they are born. Three dimensions of inequality are examined: material well-being, education, and health. This Report Card presents a first overview of inequalities in child well-being for 24 of the world’s richest countries.
