Abstract

Education is widely recognized as a key driver of social mobility, the ability of individuals to move up or down the social ladder. However, the reality is that educational opportunities are not equally distributed, leading to a persistent opportunity gap that disproportionately affects disadvantaged students. This article examines the complex relationship between education and social mobility, highlighting the factors that contribute to educational inequality and exploring potential strategies for bridging the opportunity gap.
