How to Prevent People from Dropping out of School

The percentage of high school dropouts and early school leaving is very high around the

world. It has become an issue of Global interest rather than specific countries. In 2013 in

Hungry, those who started secondary school but finished it without qualification were around

11%, similar or even higher in other European countries (Publication, 2018). This paper

discusses parent support, guidance and counselling and governments' involvement in youth

school dropout prevention.

Parents should give motivational support to their children to prevent them from dropping

out of school. Most children lack personal motivation following previous failures in the system.

They do not know successful learning methods, and a lack of connection between students and

their teachers could lead them to drop out of school. Parents should start by showing their

children they care about their homework. Engage the children in what they learnt in school.

Parents should keep in touch with their children teachers; ask about the children's progress and

their school behaviours. Positive reinforcement methods, such as rewarding the kids or praising

them upon completing a challenging task, should be used. Parents should keep tabs on their

feelings, too (Cohen, 2021). If they get very frustrated or angry about the school performance of

their children, a therapist or support group could help.

Guidance and counselling is another method to prevent teenagers from dropping out of

school. Drug and substance abuse is a massive problem in society. School going children have

always fallen victims to this problem. If a child gets introduced to drugs, they will become

addicted and drop out of school. Peer pressure also contributes to school dropouts. A child can be

influenced negatively by their age mates or introduce them to unruly behaviours, which will

eventually lead to them dropping out of school—an increase in the crime rates and racism
