"I voted for this report because early school leaving is a huge challenge. One of the five Europe 2020 headline targets indeed is to reduce the proportion of early school leavers to less than 10% and to increase the share of the younger generation with a degree or diploma or equivalent level of education to at least 40%. It is fundamental to stress that early school leaving has severe consequences for the EU’s social cohesion as it damages the career prospects, health and wellbeing of young people. A low level of education is also a key cause of poverty, negative health and social exclusion. Unfortunately, it is a matter of fact that early school leaving is particularly pronounced among children from poor and disadvantaged backgrounds and children from migrant families. The equality of opportunities and choice in education is vital for creating a fairer and inclusive society. In that regard, a fundamental role is played by the public services. Therefore, the possible public spending cuts in the education sector, on account of the economic crisis and the budgetary austerity policies, will have a terrible impact."@en1
