"I voted in favour of this report in order to send out a double message. The first one is to the EU institutions, calling on them, despite the crisis, to continue investing in education and programmes to prevent and take action against early school leaving as the most important policy for preventing inequality and social exclusion. The second message is to individuals, to tell them that they must not give up their right to education at a time like this, when Europe is redefining its role in the world, not least in economic and social terms. Having highly-qualified citizens is not just a right to be guaranteed but a moral obligation to be promoted. The European Commission has already said that within just a few years, 85% of jobs will require a high level of qualifications. The more training people have, the less unemployment there will be, with better jobs and less insecurity. Today, combating the phenomenon of children dropping out of school is the most crucial policy for helping people to find a place in the employment market. Creating cross-cutting strategies between individuals, EU institutions and the educational community is of fundamental importance in order to combat exclusion."@en1
