"The European Union’s economic recovery is closely linked to having a highly qualified workforce, which is an objective featuring in the strategy which we have committed to for the period ahead: Europe 2020. At the moment, unfortunately, a large number of young people are leaving school early, with an inadequate level of qualifications. This reduces appreciably the chances of them being successful in life, of social integration and of getting a well-paid job. What is significant is that, according to the statistics, reducing the school dropout rate by one percentage point could produce every year 1 million well-qualified young people and new opportunities for economic growth. In this respect, it is important for us to identify those measures capable of reducing the incidence of dropping out. For example, counselling could be offered to both pupils and their parents, given the influence the family environment has on pupils’ educational and social path. Extra-curricular activities organised within educational institutions also make a vital contribution. At the same time, I should point out the additional support which must be provided to people with disabilities to offer them suitable qualifications, as well as ‘second chance’ type solutions for those who have dropped out of school, but would like to continue their training."@en1
