I believe GiveWell have said that schistosomiosis deworming can lead to better school attendance and performance, although I think the evidence is mixed. Probably worth looking into.
We’re planning to look into early childhood interventions (including things like deworming, improved nutrition, etc.) separately. Having said that, we had put deworming aside since it’s basically presented by GiveWell as “low probability of high impact” which didn’t appeal to the donors. But as you say, we should review what the evidence is in terms of education impact. I’ll add that to my to do list.
