Life-Course Dynamics of Educational Tracking (LIFETRACK) LIFETRACK is a country-comparative research project on the relationship between educational institutions and the formation of social inequality. The project will run from 2018 to 2020 and analyse in which way different institutional arrangements of secondary educational systems influence the formation of social inequality over the life course. A particular focus will be on the long-term consequences of different approaches to sorting students in the course of secondary education. With this, the project follows up on recent research, which showed that not only those school systems with formal between-school tracking, but also comprehensive school systems tend to sort their students in a socially selective way.
