"Early school leaving is a problem which affects EU Member States and jeopardises the development of a society based on knowledge and innovation, as set out in the objectives of the EU 2020 strategy, namely, the flagship initiative ‘Youth on the Move’. The target of reducing early school leaving to 10% by 2020 is still far from being achieved; in 2009, the early school leaving rate for all 18 to 24-year-olds stood at 14.4%. There are many factors which lead to early school leaving, which occurs particularly in at-risk groups associated with poverty, abuse, family background, underachievement, and ethnic minorities and immigrant populations. If this problem is tackled successfully, it will lead to the reduction of intergenerational poverty and will provide economic growth in the medium and long term.
There is no ‘one-size-fits-all’ solution, but rather a set of initiatives and measures, with particular focus on public policy, in order to involve the various educational actors and the local communities. More support services and careers guidance, innovative and continuous forms of assessment, the learning of critical evaluation skills, learning to learn and greater mobility can make all the difference."@en1
