On the basis that we are in a context in which an official language and a cultural dialect coexist. The sample consisted of 489 children’s education students from 12 public educationalestablishments and 3 concerted centres, aged 5 to 6 (M= 5.23; DT= 506), of which 51.4 percent were boys (n=249) and 48.6 percent girls (n=235) of which 37.7% had Spanish as their mother tongue (n=183) and 62.3% Darija (n=302). The multidimensional instrument of basic skills in Child Education was used (Mateos y Olmedo, 2018). The results of ANOVA analysis and binary logistic regression showed that the mother tongue is the main cause of these children’s differences, negatively affecting those who have mother tongue Castilian, being clearly defined that the main weakness is shown in the areas of oral expression, written expression and phonetic consciousness.Este trabajo se centra en conocer las diferencias en el rendimiento académico de los alumnos de Educación Infantil según el sexo y la lengua materna. Para ello, y partiendo de los distintos escenarios que nos presenta la multiculturalidad, hemos tenido en cuenta las peculiaridades de esta diversidad cultural reflejadas en el aula, sin olvidar que nos encontramos en un contexto en el que coexiste una lengua oficial y un dialecto cultural. La muestra estuvo integrada por 489 alumnos de Educación Infantil de 12 centros educativos públicos y 3 centros concertados, de edades comprendidas entre 5 y 6 años (M= 5.23; DT= .506); de estos el 51.4% eran niños (n=249) y el 48.6% niñas (n=235), de los cuales el 37.7% tenían como lengua materna familiar el castellano (n=183) y el 62.3% el darija (n=302). Se utilizó el instrumento multidimensional de competencias básicas en Educación Infantil (Mateos y Olmedo, 2018). Los resultados de los análisis ANOVA y regresión Logística Binaria evidenciaron que la lengua materna es la principal causa de las diferencias de estos niños, afectando negativamente a aquellos que tienen lengua materna castellana, quedando claramente definido que la principal debilidad se muestra en las áreas de la expresión oral, la expresión escrita y la conciencia fonética
