Impact of diglossia in school performance

Hello all, I don't know if this is the right place to ask this question but here I go. I am Algerian and we have a huge diglossia problem in our education system. Basically, we get taught in MSA from 1st to 12th grade (with french introduced in 3rd, english and tamazight -in some regions- in 4th) but STEM and Med, and some humanities, are taught in French or English at the uni level, the rest in MSA. Moreover our scores are not that good ( depending on the year, only half of the students graduate high school, and failure is a problem in our unis). Given that lessons are not given in the native language of the population (vernacular Arabic for 70% of the population, tamazight for the other 30) does that impact school performance ? And if you could give me some relevant research on the matter.

*MSA: Modern Standard Arabic
