"I support this report on tackling early school leaving. The current European Commission target is to reduce the rate of early school leaving to 10% or lower across the EU by 2020. We need to work to ensure equality of opportunity for children from all social, ethnic and religious backgrounds, and regardless of gender or disability. We also need more efficient early warning mechanisms and follow-up procedures put in place in response to learning difficulties which might lead to early school leaving. We should also encourage Member States to take measures to counter stereotypes which can lead pupils from disadvantaged backgrounds to be steered towards vocational training courses, regardless of their potential in other areas. It is important also to develop teachers’ skills to help them deal with ‘at risk’ pupils Young people should also be involved in discussions about programmes designed to tackle early school leaving. There is a clear link between early school leaving and youth unemployment, particularly in the light of the decline of jobs in low-skilled or unskilled labour sectors in the EU. Member States must develop suitable programmes to reintegrate early school leavers into their education systems. Equally, lifelong learning should also be promoted."@en1
