Impact of air pollution and asthma on school attendance and educational attainment: a scoping review

Linked administrative data will be important to enable longitudinal studies of exceptionally large populations to explore asthma exacerbation, baseline and spikes of air pollution and risk factors. Analyses should control for type of educational assessment and specific particulate exposure. Studies should examine temporal changes and a variety of geographical settings to identify even weak associations to inform approaches to address inequalities of public health and education.
