Gerund or infinitive after "rather than"

Hi

I have seen a number of posts regarding whether gerund or infinitive should be used after the words "rather than" and there are many different answers.

So, really, which one is the correct, or better one?

eg

Rather than going to school, I choose to stay home, OR
Rather than go to school, I choose to stay home?

Cheers!
