Hvorfor eksisterer der en uddannelseskløft mellem etnisk danske børn og børn med indvandrerbaggrund fra ikke-vestlige lande? Og er kløften blevet reduceret over tid? Denne artikel bidrager til den eksisterende danske forskning ved at undersøge, hvad der kan forklare uddannelseskløftens eksistens samt kløftens udvikling over tid. Uddannelseskløften undersøges ved at sammenligne gennemførelsesprocenten på ungdomsuddannelser for børn, der har færdiggjort 9. klasse i 1990 til 2007. Uddannelsesproduktionsfunktionen estimeres som en lineær sandsynlighedsmodel med OLS. Artiklen finder, at uddannelseskløften er blevet reduceret over de seneste 20 år, og at forskelle i familiebaggrund forklarer en stor del af kløften. Yderligere findes en stærk sammenhæng mellem barnets alder på indvandringstidspunktet og uddannelsesmæssig præstation.
