Data from the 2000 Population Census were used to construct two sets of multilevel logistic regression models to quantify the risk of school backwardness among primary school students in fourth and eighth grade, according to individual characteristics, family socioeducational conditions and the social setting of their place of residence. Apart from showing that residence in a ghetto (favela) is associated with a higher risk of school backwardness, the results show that the risk of backwardness and school dropout is higher among inhabitants of favelas located in wealthy neighbourhoods. Possible explanatory mechanisms for these findings are reviewed.
