In Mexico, there are different teaching modalities in primary education. Studies on school effectiveness identify and quantify various factors that influence on their academic performance. In this article the educational situation of Hidalgo State, Mexico is analyzed. Non-parametric statistical tests are performed to show the existence of discrepancies on school effectiveness between the different regions for each teaching modality. In addition, with econometric models of beta coefficient, these differences are explained by the factors associated with the composition of the students, schools and localities. The results suggest that some teaching modalities are more sensitive than others to the interactions between the regional socioeconomic context and the factors describing the student’s environment.
