Abstract
Having qualified and educated people is very important for the sustainable development of the country. Having well-educated, qualified and employed people will contribute to the economic growth. In the paper we analyzed demographic factors that affect the performance of students. Results of ordered probit analyze showed that the performance of those students whose parents are living together are for 4,9 % higher than students whose parents are divorced. Also, the performance of students whose mother is working is higher for 2.7%. The surprising results related the level of the income of the family. The performance of the students from highest income level is lower for 12.2 %.
