El fracaso escolar: diagnóstico y tratamiento
José Manuel Bautista Vallejo
Universidad de Huelva (España)
Entendemos por fracaso escolar las dificultades para alcanzar los objetivos marcados por el sistema educativo. Dichas dificultades no se refieren solamente a los handicaps personales, sino también a la falta de capacidad de adaptación del sistema. Por tanto, el fracaso no es simplemente un fenómeno que refleja las diferencias de rendimiento entre el alumnado. Lejos de esto, entendemos que este concepto abarca diversos significados que se adentran en el complejo mundo de la teoría del currículum y de los valores que la escuela como institución va transmitiendo y que, además, debe ser analizado en el marco de un determinado contexto. El concepto, por tanto, de fracaso escolar no está exento de controversia.
En el ámbito de la psicopedagogía, el estudio del fracaso escolar debe conducir siempre a un esmerado diagnóstico y éste a un adecuado programa de intervención, teniendo en cuenta la índole general del problema, en relación a las múltiples variables que pueden estar afectadas.
¿Cuáles son las fases de un diagnóstico?
A) Información escolar y familiar
De la entrevista familiar pueden obtenerse datos en los campos de la historia evolutiva, datos relativos al embarazo, parto, nacimiento, crecimiento y estado de salud en general.
En lo relativo al informe escolar, no se trata tanto de las evaluaciones cuantitativas como la opinión que tienen los profesores respecto a: integración en el grupo, reacción frente al medio escolar, rendimiento en relación a la opinión que tienen los profesores de su capacidad, existencia de alguna anomalía específica observada, etc.
B) Exploración psico-pedagógica
- Nivel mental: interesa conocer el nivel mental del niño para poder descartar un retraso intelectual como causa de la dificultad de aprendizaje.
- Exploración del lenguaje: nivel de evolución del lenguaje (vocabulario, estructuración de frases, uso de verbos, etc.), comparación entre el lenguaje espontáneo y el repetitivo, alteraciones (dislalias e inversiones).
- Exploración del nivel pedagógico: es de vital importancia el estudio de los niveles adquiridos en las materias básicas. Interesa conocer la madurez gráfica y lectora del niño, el grado que ha alcanzado y las anomalías que presenta.
- Exploración perceptivo-motriz: esquema corporal, lateralidad, etc.
- Exploración espacio-temporal: se obtienen datos sobre posibles dificultades en la discriminación perceptiva y en la simetría derecha-izquierda, sobre la maduración viso-motora del niño.
- Estudio de la personalidad: proporciona una visión completa de toda la problemática del niño.
¿Cómo prevenir el fracaso?
No constituye solamente una estrategia de intervención, sino más bien toda una cultura que hay que llevar a la escuela. Para prevenir el fracaso escolar es necesario comprometer e implicar a padres, profesores y alumnos, para que conjuntamente tomen parte activa en la tarea educativa, cada uno a su nivel. Además, por ser múltiples las posibles causas de un fracaso escolar (sociales, políticas, económicas, familiares, educativas, psicológicas, pedagógicas, organizativas, etc.), las prevenciones también deben darse en todos estos sectores.
¿Cómo tratar el fracaso escolar?
Una amalgama de estrategias de intervención en el fracaso escolar puede ser considerada dentro de la llamada recuperación educativa. La recuperación educativa consiste en un programa de educación correctiva, que debe apoyarse en el supuesto de que cada niño es diferente, por lo que la enseñanza debe ser personalizada. El tratamiento pedagógico de recuperación educativa debe estimular, en fin, el deseo de aprender del niño y hacerle consciente de su progreso.
Los principios que rigen la aplicabilidad de la enseñanza correctiva son:
- El tratamiento debe estar basado en el diagnóstico.
- El tratamiento debe tener en consideración el sentimiento del propio valor del alumno.
- La enseñanza correctiva ha de ser individualizada.
- El programa correctivo debe ser estimulante y motivador.
- Los ejercicios y materiales deben seleccionarse cuidadosamente.
- El tratamiento debe tener en cuenta todas las circunstancias ambientales en que el niño se desenvuelve.
- El progreso del niño debe ser continuamente evaluado, para ser retroalimentado.
- Los métodos de enseñanza han de ser de probada eficacia.
It is a big problem, in every school I guess, to educate all students, at the same level, no matter what are they needs, how much attentions they need and how big with learning the ycould have. It is imoprtant thing, for an education system as a whole but also for each teacher, to deal with every special student, to teach them, to let them have equal chances as other students. But we all know that it is not an easy problem to solve. Mostly these kind of students are not given a proper help, bigger attetion. They are just called a problematic students and from the beginning treated as worst than others. What also dangerous, often teachers expect from them less, cause they don’t learn too much in general. In my opinion it all of course depend on a teacher, if she/he look at class as a group of students to teach or rather as group of individuals, where each of them need attention and help, no matter what kind of ability he/she has.

As far as I remember, I have always had friends named as problematic or lazy in class. It was in my childhood and my earlier teenage times. It is so sad that, non of them were treated in a way that the article above offers. Probably, after the primary school or high school their education life is over. Why? Because they were lazy or they didn’t deserve it. No! A great ‘NO’.. Because they weren’t supported by the people around them. We, the friends, often made fun of them. Our teachers humiliated them by asking permenant questions during the classes. Probably, their parents blamed them for laziness. What happened then? Society lost nothing but a promising individual who could take part in a different place. Shortly, we all are born with same but different characteristics. As the teachers of the future, what we must do is to respect to diffencies among our students and figure out their interiors. So that, we can create a humanistic society and wonderful world.

The rapid development of science and technology makes that the rapidly growing demands of school, so learning becomes difficult and not all students are able to meet the demands posed to them. Such children do not make progress in school, often receive poor reviews, live with a sense of injustice, often doomed to a lack of educational success. The school failure, we have since the beginning of the school. In every Polish school are students who are experiencing difficulties in learning, experiencing setbacks and move away from the school. These students not only make the other problems, but often have difficulty with each other and the environment, which can not comply…The responsibility falls on the student’s teacher. Which should effectively influence its development and reduce its difficulties in school. This is a very difficult task, requiring the subject teacher and educator of particular concern in relation to the a pupil.
My primary school teacher told about this issue with drawing a triangle. I remember she said not only for success but also for education she always needed to keep them together for keeping in touch. That triangle stated teacher, family and the student. All three are necessary and important also has responsibilities for education process. Firstly, teachers’ responsibilities, especially in primary school, are really much. They should take care not only with their lessons but also with their social life, communication with other students, their psychology. Additionally, if they realise something go wrong, they should always inform family. Besides teachers should know how to apply different teaching approaches, methods, activities and techniques, they should try to know students (e.g. students’ culture) and observe them (e.g. communication with others). Secondly, family also should always be careful about their children’s development of psychological, educational and social, and like teachers family also should keep in contact teacher and school. They both should make students feel like that they care his/her and support, because students can need these, for preventing students from failure.

Teaching and euducational process should be based on personal pupil’s needs however the finansial reward for it for teachers would be to little to cover the job. Nevertheless a GOOD teacher should be not only interested in payment for work but especially in his speciality - children education.
However if we put this problem to bigger scale - growing population will have a need of greater number of teachers and educators. “Greater number” could mean “less quality”, thus we should consider (with attitude) new ways of education and preparation of teachers.
I completely agree with the ideas presented in this article. School failure is a serious and complex problem, which affects not only students but also their parents and teachers. Therefore, its prevention is the best solution, and as it has been written, cooperation between parents, teachers and students is here crucial. Having children with difficulties in learning, parents should take care of their special educational needs, pay more attention to their school life and monitor the progress in education. Teachers ought to choose proper teaching methods, adequate for such students’ needs and preferences, diversify these methods (to avoid routine and boredom), give more time for assimilation of taught material if it is necessary (each student’s pace of gaining knowledge is important), be patient and helpful. When it comes to other students in a class, their tolerant and friendly attitude is essential. Unfortunately, it happens that students with problems in learning are perceived by their classmates as worse or even become isolated from a group. Of course, it depends on the students’ individual attitudes towards others, their manners, character, age, etc. However, improvement-seeking aim without friendly atmosphere in a class is hard to be achieved. In my mind, other students’ negative attitudes towards pupils with problems in learning are the weakest link in the chain of the mentioned cooperation and prevention.

Every student has no same capacity, intelligence, ability in life of her/him learning. Therefore, every student can’t learn same lesson in the same way. There are several reasons of the school failure. For example, if teacher don’t know him/her students sufficiently, this is big problem for students. Probably the topic is boring for student that teacher tells it in class,because student can have different fields of artistic or educational. So that teachers shouldn’t apply pressure to students about lessons.
I think teachers should seperate classes of students according to students’ comprehension rates. However teachers should communicate with students’ families because of students can have with their parents.
A reason for the school failure can educational deficiencies. Therefore, teachers,families,other educators should support the schools material and spiritual aspects. Social,political and economic environment should help to schools for new generations.

Students have problems and teachers have responsibilities of the students so teachers have to solve their problems. Firstly, the teachers should make a diagnosis and then they should treat it. Therefore, the teachers realised that every students are different so all of them have different problems. If a student isn’t successful, there can be a lot of problem. S/he may not like the subject or teacher, or has some problems which are about her/his family relation. Or s/he needs to listen the subject two or three times. After teacher realised the problem, S/he speaks with the student’s family and they have to find a solution together. And after their solution, the student can find out the subject. But s/he still doesn’t learn, they should find another solution. But finally, if s/he still doesn’t understand, the student can change her/his branch.

Although all are aware of the failure in the objectives in the education system, but all also know how to remove them. Throughout the article describes what should be done so that no failure! So why are not governed by the teachers? I think one major problem is the lecturer!. Everyone can learn how to teach, learn the definition, but who will teach us to teach students properly so that we are interested, entertained the teaching that at least half the knowledge that they say in the hours left in my head …? Nobody! A good teacher is looking bad, or at least there are few.
Therefore, I think that there is no error in the pupils, of course, that does not mean that all students can affect their education, of course it does. Students must have at least some relationship to teaching, but if a teacher has taken so much, never to be students as something they would like to know, but rather you must know!.
I agree that failure will prevent the involvement of parents, classmates and other people close to them. It certainly helps if others will help to ensure that everything went better. But while the teacher has an interest in the child as an individual, to know what is in health, his perceptions, abilities, level of language and especially his interest in teaching him the lessons or customize, so that interested him. It’s hard to take a class of 30 pupils, but because the teacher would be so open-minded, creative and fun, that’s interesting.
People may have individual differences. These differences are not to be ashamed of or to be proud of.Every people has his own style of doing a work. But in education, we should decrease these differences by helping them about these styles. But how? We should first know our student. This is a problem in education system. Because, generally the teachers don’t have these kind of approaches.Education is linked to a lot of things like family, environment, age, characteristic features etc. So, maybe it’s hard for them to know the students by taking all of these things into account.

From the very beginning of our lives we are constantly facing more and more expectations coming from our parents, siblings, teachers, peers and from our environment.It is not easy at all to live up to all of them and therefore it is very important to teach children that the inability to solve a problem, does not mean that they are incapable of doing it or that it is a FAILURE. Those children who aren’t taught how to handle obstacles, how to get over them by more practicing or asking questions, will later on have a hard time with problem-solving in many areas of their lives. Education therefore begins with parents,and not teachers. When we want to find a better way of treating educational failures, we have to begin with the background of the children, with the parent-child relationship. After getting an idea of what the children are like in their home environment, we can work on modifying our teaching methods, to find the one method that fits the best the needs of the students. We might have to devide the into groups according to their levels and capabilities, but we also have to make them realize that there is always more to learn.Motivation is a key idea in education because uninterested children won’t remember anything, won’t pay attention, whereas if we create a need for learning, they will become curious and eager to learn new things.
From my point of view, we shouldn’t use the word failure in education because if we carefully consider and study the personality and the level of the student, we can get over every obstacle.Children should feel that they have power to solve every problem if they work on it and try hard, therefore instead of failure, obstacle is a better word to be used in this case. Creating a healthy ego and balanced personality is more important than making a scientist from every child. They should be treated as individuals with different capacities, differently developed brain hemispheres, different family backgrounds.Our aim should be to release sane and healthy individuals, who are able to cope with life’s difficulties and understand that not coming up to the highest expectations doesn’t mean that they are worthless or worse than those who set those expectations.

Everyone knows that school is not perfect institiution. Generally, I think that it also never will be, becouse everyone is different and considers school as something different than others. It is natural. But it is very important to make te school better and better, not worse and worse. To achieve a higher level of schoolarship, there is necessary involment not only of teachers and school authorities. A big role have also parents and pupils. Parents should be interested in schoolarship of their children, they should also explain to their children how important the education is. School authorities are also very important: they should guard carrying the rules and rights by teachers and pupils, they shoud be helpful to them and should try to make teaching and learning easier and more interesting for both. The key role is played by teachers: the more interesting lessons they make, the more knowledge is taken by the pupils. All these subjects are very close to each other and should cooperate to make to school better.
School failure consists of many factors. Each of us are different so we understand information or topic in different time , so teachers i think need to understand this . Also teacher should work a lot on people personality to know and understand better his needs and everything. For this in school need to work in small classrooms i think. And i think the last one it’s realy hard to change something if a student aren’t interested in studies.

School is not a perfect institution. Everybody knows that. It is hard to make it works good because of many factors that that affect the functioning of the school.
If we want school to function properly and efficiently we have to tak under consideration a few factors for example:
background and culture of children in school,
parents financial and intelectual capacity, selection of a materials and exercises. I think taht the most important think is to think about school as community of individual personalities. Everybody is different. Of course it is impossible to give every student the same amount of attention but we should always remeber that everybody is different and school must be flexible
In my opinion this is the only way to cure mistakes in school
The failure of certain schools is a widely discussed topic in the UK, however there is a consensus on several issues that contribute toward their failure. The first is a high pupil to teacher ratio - the more students there are per every teacher, the less time the teacher has to spend tending to the individual needs of each pupil. Secondly, a lot of these schools are in the poorer areas of the inner cities. These areas are usually neglected by the authorities and gang violence is rampant. On these two points, I believe everyone agrees. Therefore it is also agreed upon that these are problems to be addressed, which is where further disagreement arises.
School failure has been a major topic of conversation in England for the past decade. Who is to blame - the teachers or the parents? I don’t think it is anyones fault but the childs education depends on both the parents and teachers. Households where a parent is really concerned about their child and their education and show the child that they are really interested in the child’s progress, rarely fail. Although families that show no interest or do not offer any help towards the child seem to have a child that fails.
We must consider also that the school system can play an important role. I think that other countries have better passing rates because of their unusual techniques to motivate students not to fail. In some countries, if a student fails their course, they are held back and have to repeat the course or complete the course again during summer. To many student this is not something you want to do so this gives them the motivation and the strength to pass.

Every student has an individual need that needs to be paid attention to. Even though failure is not a process that everyone follows the unequal treatment of an individual can define the result of their failure. Parental guide at home can ensure the student is getting the correct attention to maintain a positive attitude towards their education. However this goal can only be reached if the parents and teachers asses the correct procedures and work with the student in a correct manner. Knowing the specific learning needs of the individual and the type of communication the students is likely to respond better enhances their development skills further, preventing them from failing.

As individuals we are all different, have different needs and problems. As students also. unique in every way. As a student you also experience that others may have problems that you manage perfectly and the other way around. Some of us manage maths perfectly, others geography. This is why we all require different methods for learning. This is of course problematic and difficult for a teacher. Teachers have to consider all the students at all times and should try to stimulate every students unique needs. In my opinion there is not enough resourses made in school in terms of helping the students understanding and learning the subjects. In some clases there is need for a second teacher because of children who requires extra help. It is also a challenge for the parents. many students have homework nither they nor the parents understands. These students often experience the feeling of falling behind the other classmates. This does something with your self-esteem as well as you often feel lost in the subject. I belive that it is very important for teachers who have many students in one class to take the time to sit and talk to each student to hear about what they feel they don´t understand or what they do understand.

It’s essenstial that the teacher and the parents have a good dialog concerning the child. Maybe the child have problems at home, which could affect the learning prosess at school. Parents should also help their child in the best maner they can when it comes to homework, questions etc. However it might happen that the are changes in the curriculm/terms, so that they can’t help.
From my point of view every child should have classes adjusted to their best learning method.Some children learn best when they read, other playing games etc. However, it’s impossible to achive that, when there are 30 pupils in a class with only one teacher. Therefore, I think it’s important that the teacher varies the teaching, to satify all the children in the best way that’s possible.
For children with extra diffuctilies I think an extra teacher who will give guidance and help to that student, is a good solution to improve their learning in the schools.
Tonje Groendahl
In my opinion it is impossible to prepare class which would be ideal for All of students. All of them have other possibilities and learn in other way. For example one can be a fast learner, while the other needs more time to understand things. One can also learn faster in a quiet environment while the other at the exact time when the music or television is on. It is teachers’ task to make the classes as various as it is possible to try all kinds of absorbing knowledge they want to convey. Of course teaching methods and parental support go always hand in hand. If it is really noticeable that children have problems with learning parents should obviously know about that and then devote their time to help them. They should recognize somehow cause of their difficulties in school and try to solve it . They should never blame their children for the exam results ( unless bad grades are not the results of their laziness ) but support as much as possible. I think that everyone has ambitions and everyone wants to achieve their own target. If only we are properly motivated there is nothing to stop us from getting it.
Magda Marciniak
In my opinion the most important thing is cooperation between teachers and parents. It’s obvious that if a child has a problem with learning he needs more attention, unfortunately teacher is only one, in class are about 25-30 pupils and class lesson has only 45min…for that reason parents help in education process is extremly important. Ofcourse somethimes working in home it’s not enought and it’s necessary to go to specialist who can help find other reason of this difficulties but it’s still very important to comunicate to parents that they child has some problems and try to solve it as soon as possible.
The other thing is that usually clasess are not very interesting and a lot of students are simply bored, especially when they have to learn by heart completly unusful things just for pass the exam…we can only hope that one day govermant will change education system and the studying will be again treated as a privilige and pleasure, not an obligation.
When it comes to this subject, I think it is important that the parents get to participate in their child’s education, because it helps the teacher to understand more of the child’s situation – family relations, different problems within the family, culture, etc. – things that really matters when it comes to the child’s development, motivation for, and prerequisites to manage school. Family contact and engagement in every individual’s conditions is difficult to achieve in a good way, and maybe isn’t enough to help children with difficulties in school. The society also plays a significant role in this case, and there is a lot that can be discussed here. But what is sure is that it is both the parents’ as much as the teacher’s responsibility to help the child and to create the best founding possible for managing school and being motivated to it. We need teachers to be engaging, inspiring, and also have a sense of empathy.
In the text it is also written that the school lack of adaption. If I got this right I think it is quite true. Today there is too little light upon the individual and that there are differences between the individuals in the classroom. Quite often I think pupils are just seen as a whole, as a class, and are not being seen as the unique individuals they are.
I think it got captured very well in the article, that interventions and actions should be made within all the areas possible for causing problems in school, such as the politics, social and psychological factors, and I also want to add the environment in which we live every day.
Hanna Nilsson
There are mentioned diferent causes of failures during the school time at the article. Some of them have something common with the family problems, financial problems and bad educational system. I agree that we should make as much effort as it is possible to erase all these problems in order to help children. I think that it is important to show children a good part of life and convey them the most valuable principles. If we want to help children we need to have kind of influance on their character. We can’t simply force them to learn and to gain grades at school. We should talk to them a lot and explain issues. A lot of students whose school-time passes quite easy, to whose education is convenient and who have perfect conditions for learning, they usually don’t make such an effort to achive their target. That’s why i think that the harder it is to get the aim the more you appreciate your success after all.

First I have to say that I totally agree with the article. School failure is a big problem which we have to deal with.
There are a lot of reasons why a child may fail a class. The most important of them is the family and its problems. In every family there are changes, but sometimes these changes make the children doubtful and because of that they loose their interest in school and in studying. It is significant that the family have to be an affectionate and safe place for them. They need a role model and this person could be from the family, from the relatives or also from the school.
The teachers could be ideals too. The second reason of failure can arise from the school. If a kid doesn’t feel well in the courses, it could be because of the teachers or also because of his/her school mates. And another big problem is that nowadays it is not „cool / trendy” to study. The choice depends on the self-assessment of the child and on the support of the parents and the teachers. If he/she chooses that the studying is really „sticky”, then the result could be the school failure.
But other reasons could be the absences from shool because of chronic disease or operation, learning difficulties, behavorial disorders or school immaturity.
Often deep, unprocessed psychological porblems cause all these reasons. In that case the parents have to be patient and helpful. It is better if they concentrate on the solution instead of quarreling with their son/daughter. It is very important that the teachers and the parents have to help together.The child should feel that he/she can count on somebody whatever happens. They really need positive reinforcements in this part of their lives.
School failure is not only a problem when it happens, it also affects the future of the children. So special attention should be payed to it.
Best wishes,
Julia Bede
When you are working with children you have to know what the background is, the culture, the family, how he/she studying etc.
It’s important that you know the child good, so you can give a good diagnosis. You can give a diagnosis by doing observations. How is the child working, alone or in a group. When you notice something important, it’s important to talk about it with other teachers, or in a peergroup. It’s also necessary to inform the parents of the child.
Communication is the most important word in this case. You have to communicate with the parents, child, teachers, professionals to get a good observation, diagnoses and good results
In my opinion, in order to prevent school dropout, it is truly necessary to center your attention on each child as an individual, to get to know his/hers social/familial/psychological condition, to improve it –or at least to try to improve it-, to show that you care; but even after doing all these, there will be needed the help of others specialists and also parent’s support, in order to completely remove the risk of dropout.
It is a sure fact that there has to be a connection between the activity of training (designed by teacher) and the activity of learning (accomplished by student), because both of them are subordinated to an activity with a higher degree of generality – education. Considering actual changes, learning environment and its development trends (as we all know, education intends to be centered on the individual), a possible solution to reduce school dropout may be represented by giving a bigger importance to education’s secondary components, such as civic education, axiological one, religious education, health education, environment education etc. – sides of education that have a big and important contribution to the formation of personality; I do not say that the main components of education (intellectual, moral, professional, aesthetic, physical one) may be neglected, but the system and people who form the system need to pay attention to children’ needs and try to fulfill them (as many as possible).
I also think that a good cooperation between all sides involved in educational field of an individual (teachers, parents, children) must be developed in order to prevent and reduce school dropout.

I think, that the most serious problem is the school system. In my country (Poland), the way of teaching is very ancient. Students are not interested in learning, and I understand them. Teachers are not able to do classes in a interesting way. System has to be changed and as a result of that, students and teachers will change their attitude to teaching and learnig. Jan Zajac
The right function of educational system depends on many conditions. First is a government which made reforms, at least finance. These are the things which common person can´t manipulate. Let´s look at problematic issue which can affect each school by yourself and make concrete measures to improve the school system. In my homeland (Slovakia) is the new phenomenon to have a hyperactive child. All parents are coming with it, that they have hyperactive child at home and what they have to do, how can they work with that child. In most cases is „that“ child normal, healthy which has just a lot of energy which can´t discharged anywhere. Very important role in the school ground maintain social worker who works specially with children who ride up from standards. If social worker can see that the child is slow in learning or dull, can just send the child to CPPP (centre of psychological – pedagogical advisory service). There they make some tests, when result came they made arrengements. For example may have forfeited the child or to make an individual plan or assign personal asistent. For good atmosphere in the class is very important good students. If in 1 class are 2 – 5 problematic children, this class is consider like a „bad class, where nobody want to teach“. Next is very important the selection of children in matriculation. When is admitted a child which is not ready, has problems with learning during all primary school. This are very important issues. Of course it´s necessary to work with actual topics, literature, then adapt programme to present, use the new methodology and technologies.

In my opinion its difficult to put the proper diagnosis of the student possibility. It is an extremely long process, so the steps mentioned by you, should be performed several times during the years of learning child at school. It is important to take appropriate steps as soon as possible. Of course, parents and teachers should play a key role in recognizing the problems in learning pupils. Remedial instruction is undoubtedly useful. In my country Poland, remedial classes are conducted in small groups usually once a week. This is definitely not enough. Work with the child is paramount. A student with special needs should be under the care of school counselor who will help him find himself in school. However, such a person is not able to check exactly student progress and skills. Here is why involvement of parents is needed in the development of child: helping with homework, learning control.
In assessing ability and capabilities of the student we should take into consideration his willingness and commitment. It is extremely important because without help from the student are not able to help him. What is more while working with the pupil over his problems with learning we should be careful about his feeling. I mean his self-esteem. Treating him differently than other students may have negative impact of his psyche.

Education of our children is very important for themselves and also for ourselves. We have to be very watchful for our children , especially when we notice that he/she has a problem. I agree with this article about how should look diagnosis and treatment but I think it is impossible to introduce that system in a real live. The most important person who should notice child problem should be teacher. Nowadays children spend a lot of time in school and when they come back home, very often they are with their grandparents (who love them the most and don’t see any problems), or they have to stay in home alone, because parents are making career.In this situation it’s impossible for parents to notice child problem. I think that good pedagogue should observe students and react on time-talk to parents, go with a child to psychologist etc. I think that this article give us good option to resolve child problems and it show us how the whole procedure should look but I think in normal school it doesn’t work. I agree that sometimes are really good pedagogues who take care of students and react in case of problems, but nowaday there are a lot of teachers who don’t care and don’t want to do anything(I’m only talking about situation in Poland, because I don’t know how it looks in others country.)Parents, teachers and also students should get more involved in overcoming educational problems.
In my mind, i think that very important role in learning process play our parents who lead examples, develope our thinking, help us to solve problems. In addition, there are a lot of examples of children who don‘t have parents or their parents are drinkers. Many of them failure the school due to increased stress, loss self-confidence and motivation… Conversely, students who live in not social friendly environment, still graduate university very well! Why? Because of second parents – teachers. I mean it is very important to raise qualified teaching staff. Teachers who is enthusiastic, motivating and friendly, who can INSPIRE you and make addicted not only to his subject but also thinking about future. There can be perfect intervention programs, but if responsible people will be like robots, no good results will be effected. So, the most important thing is humanity power.

This article introduce us to school failure and methods how to recognize it and how deal with it. I think that most important person who can early to see if kids has a problems with learning is a teacher and firstly they should try to help . Cause no one spend so much time with child than a teacher .I remember my days in school, I go there 5 days in a week , from 7 am until 5 pm , so a lot of time I spend in the school , with my teachers and classmates . But of course , parents should react quick in this situation , if their kid have problems and try to help with that , spend more time with kid and do thing similar like that . Just for kids wealth.

I´m agree with this article. We have to look on every child like an individuality so we can prevent his failure. Every child has a different needs, hobies and interests about educational system. But it is not possible, in educational system, to take attention about every each child. In my opinon the child should be join into the class which has similar ability to adapt into the educational system. But I think that this is not possible everywhere either, because there is a big spectrum of kids with different abilities and skilfuls. This is the reason why, in specific cases, i reccomend a home school learning, like i was wrote in a last article. In America is this system a good run in, but in Europe a lots of people still have some restriction and reminds.
I´m studying a social work and in this part of humanities we´re still in touch with kids which have a problems in a school, they´re failuring. After that the problems don´t have just a kids, but a family at all. Many times in a schol are not heared kids problems and reminds and the child is from the teacher side puting aside and is stamp like somebody who is not able to do his own duties.
On the other side if we look on the problem from the student side we can see, that not allways is the problem student fall, student lazy or ignorancing of school system, but the many times the problem is ignoration of his own needs from the school/ teacher side.
This is the reason why i recommend coopertion between teachers, parrents and students (kids) together, but is necessary that one side is listening the other side.

School failure depends on many factors. May be caused by too many students in the classroom, lack of cooperation between parents and school or when parents overwhelm children with additional activities (for example: judo, dance classes, foreign languages, music schools, drawing lessons etc…)
But in my opinion there is also other big problem. Many children have some problems with dysleksia, concentration or Asperger’s syndrome. Normally people think that after one session in psychologist they can find the problem and start the treatment. But it is not true. You need a lot of time and patience.
When I had my student practice in Psychotherapy Center I had seen many cases of improper treatment. I had seen desperate parents who had been in many places with their children. In each one their get different diagnosis. I think that’s because it is difficult to unambiguously classify the problem. One and the same kid had different diagnosis….extremely different (starting with ADHD, some concentration problems, asperger and ending with diagnosis of slight autism).
The study of the child is quite long and involves the gradual exclusion of various disorders. It is important that teachers at this time could work with parents and psychologist. It is important not to stigmatize the child.
Many of those kids were extremely clever but they could loose their motivation to learn if from the very beggining some good pedagogue and psychologist doesn’t take care of their education.
In conclusion I want to say that it is easy to teach clever and patient kids. Much harder to teach children with problems. This requires from the teacher a lot more effort but IT IS POSSIBLE to achieve.

In France where I am from, we have been told about the “equal opportunity” and “meritocracy” at school. Indeed, everyone can go to the school and in the university despite of the social inequalities and this seems to be a fair “policy” for all. However, how can we explain the fact that today, the French educational system is one the most inequitable of the OECD?
Still in France, in order to show the problems of the French educational system, they often compare the children of an executive and the children of a workman (from the working class). As a consequence, we can deduce that the social class of the parents has a considerable impact on the future of the children.
The child of an executive will have a more appropriate environment to study, to have an access to the culture, to the books etc.. contrary to the child of a worker. Over the years, the inequalities widen and lead us to the “myth” of the “equal opportunity”.
A French sociologue (called François Dubet), had proposed at first a more “egalitarian society” and then “the equal opportunity” in order to reduce this “social injustice”.
Personnaly, I agree with the concept of a “more egalitarian society” but I think that the parents should be more implicated and that the psychopedagody cannot be ignored as well if we want to avoid this scholar failure.

We know that children are our future. Our future is depending on how we prepare them to live.
So we should be very careful. We should do everything to prevent their failure. Their failure now will be our disaster in the future.
We should realize that when education is a way to create better future for us and our children.
Karolina Stefańczyk
The child and his education are very important for our future and must not neglect their education. whether education is hard to assess the benefit straight away because it is a long process which is hard to diagnose right away. continued reform of education I have the impression it only hurt and harm the children above all herds of trial and error method is not appropriate and you should first think about every reform of the well and then be introduced

Referring to the article I must say that the failure of students in a school in my country do not contribute to the abandonment of education. Before I arrived in Spain I heard, with many children already in elementary school give up and leave the school. I was in shock, because without a good education of children are deprived of opportunity for good works, may have problems in your personal life because of ignorance, for example, foundations of law. The proposed solution failures in school are very good, but quite difficult to achieve. I think here of “La enseñanza Corrective individualizada ha de ser”. The schools are too many students who need help and not enough teachers who could help them and spend time with them individually on the compensatory lessons. In my opinion the fight against failure at school is difficult and requires time and dedication on the part of institutions associated with the school.

To my mind, an individual approach to every student is essential in consideration to the teaching methodology. Every person is individual, therefore, we do not learn every pieces of knowledge and different activities in the same time. What is more, all personal characteristics should be taken into account. Most of the people/actions surrounding a student have some influence on his/her learning process, even if he/she is completely not aware of it.
Nevertheless, an indvidual approach to every student takes lots of time. In theory is a marvellous idea, but in practice it is very hard to do. It is not an easy task to collect all the information needed to make a diagnosis. Students and their parents can be not willing to say everything needed. Sometimes,students are not even aware what stimulates them (or not) to learn.
However, this approach can be successful and should be practiced. But the cooperation between students, their parents and teachers is the first step that has to be fulfilled.
Mariola Dębiec
Mother and father, first must accept the child as an individual, independent, must treat him/her with love. Listen to his feelings and thoughts of establishing a good relationship with him/her, s/he has to respect the feelings and thoughts.Parents also must allow their children what their children want to be.
The teacher needs to deal constantly with the students. The teacher must be with the families of the students must cooperate. Which is unrelated to the course, late arrivals, fleeing the school, failed, withdrawn, quiet and a friend or a very moving and do not care about individual students, which is scattered, with the co-operation should go to his family, if necessary, consult the experts and institutions to be benefited.

There are some reasons for the failure of the child from the school or its surroundings. Constitute a single cause, such as school failure in children, with more than one reason may be also effective. First, you must turn the promise of failure. Because the lack of success and the success of each person is treated according to different concepts. Considered one of the success for failure to include someone else. For example, the child of a mother to pass the class as a success while another mother of a child’s appreciation of the report card did not take good notes in all their classes or special schools may fail exam he did not win. In fact, success is a concept that should be considered different for each child. Successfully adopted a child from another child, of course acceptable for the failure. However, the child’s mental skills that are important here, and taking into account the level of cognitive development is to make an assessment. Evaluation of success according to parents’ expectations can be made. A child’s failure to mention any of his knowledge and skill in gaining back their own developmental level than their peers to see that.

School failure is the combination of many factors. Many people (especially parents)think that is the teacher’s fault. On the other hand, in many opinion there is also parent’s fault. Other factor which may cause school failure is personality problem.. Every student have different skills, abilities, needs and problems. Thanks to that kind of articles and subject called ‘Diagnosis in Education’ I found out that it is a long and very difficult process to understand student’s problem, discover exact reason and later on solve the problem. Nevertheless in such situations there is necessity of cooperation between student, parents and the teacher. From my point of view the educational system is not able to manage with such difficulties. School failure become a common problem, that’s why we have to take into account all factors and investigate very carefully: parents cannot put pressure on their child’s education, teachers should take into account student’s behavior, treat them as single units , no as a group of students because as I mentioned above- every student is different. Very often it happens that parents or teachers don’t want to see child’s problem. In final effect the problem becomes bigger and bigger . We cannot let to develop such situation. Parents and teachers should be aware of fact that one day children become adults, so we cannot let the problem to grow because it may cause disaster in child’s future life.

I think that the students are not the reason of failure at school all
the time. Because, this is the responsibility of the instructors
rather than students. Because the students are young and they are
generally looking for help from elder people or their parents not only
in their school lives but also in their social lives. This is why they
need to get help in school. In addition, if the pressure of “being
successful” does not give positive result, this may cause behavioural
disorder. The main duty of instructors is to find the ways of
educative techniques which primarily make students more comfortable
and make students fearless from being unsuccessful. And this is not
too hard to find these ways through the education that we took. In
addition, by the experience, that we gain from not only in our
education lives but also in our whole life, we can easily tell these
to the students.

School failure is quite prominent in many societies. But as stated in the article, there are many different reasons for this occurence. Parents blame teachers, teachers blame the government, and the government blames, teachers, parents and students.
With everyone playing pass the blame, and so many factors affecting the performance of a school, how does one diagnose accurately and apply a remedy?
Living in inner London I went to a school that since I left has gone through several transitions, and is now an academy school, being threatened to improve or be shutdown. From my personal experience at a school one can say was ‘failing’ I can say first hand that no one factor is to blame. But a endless circle of different social, economic, and governmental issues.
When I was in secondary school students like myself who were smart and well behaved were ignored, and the teachers spent all the energy and attention on the students who acted badly, and those who had slipped through primary education unnoticed.
What this resulted in was, students who were smart or well behaved, giving up because they never got the recognition they felt they deserved. Teachers became weary and their motivation to the job they once loved depleted.
Alot of the time teachers just attributed bad behaviour to the students not having respect and gave them detention or threw them out of class; if they had asked a few questions they may have found that the student was being bullied, having a hard time concentrating, or most likely was coming from a bad situation at home.
The government also sometimes are more of a hindrance than a help. they put in national targets that schools have to reach without taking into consideration demographical differences.
School failure has been a recurrent issue throughout the years. There are many factors that are involved.
In the past, only men worked and women stayed at home. They could therefor help the children with their school work. Now both parents work and the children have to do everything themselves. The social media and video game sectors are growing more and more important everyday. Children prefer spending time having fun rather than doing their school work.
Another problem is the school system which hasn’t been “upgraded” in a long time. In order to obtain better results and interest more the students, the government(s) may need to review it’s policies.
As a child gets older, he attends classes with more and more students. The classes are too crowded. Teachers cannot give any spare time to the students, and just “spit out” their lesson, and driiiiiiiiiing.. class is over and only a small part of the class really understood the day’s lesson. More students, less teachers, same amount of time, never a good mix/blend.
I personally believe that not all students have the intellectual capacities to go to university, which isn’t a shame at all. Students need more attention in primary and secondary school, as well as a reorganization of the school system.
There will always be school failure, but the goal is to reduce the numbers of failures, to interest the students, and to make children actually want to go to school. This hard task will not be resolved in one day.

Nicholas Mierowski
For me this tipic is difficult to comment because I don’t quite understand what school failure is. The only example of school failure for me is my secondary school, where studied all kind of students with different ability levels and with different situations in their families. The school was public and I found it too easy to study there over the years, so luckily mother paid attention to this and changed the school for me. In Latvia public secondary schools are pay-free and usually no good for studying.
There are many factors contributing to pupils´ failure at school. Its reasons may lie on the teacher´s side or it may be caused by the situation at home, for example material reasons, but also it depends on students themselves. Students should feel that they need to acquire and expand their knowledge, tending to the self-improvement.
When the first problems or difficulties start to appear, they should not be ashamed, but openly talk about them with their teacher and parents. Because the sooner they resolve the problem, the better!
Children will feel then much more comfortable and safer in the classroom and will not be ashamed in front of their schoolmates anymore and will find greater enthusiasm for further learning. Facing difficulties children should feel support from parents and teachers. Teachers should try to find time to attend all their students, although I realize that this it´s difficult, since the groups are numerous.
Parents should also pay more attention to their children and check how they manage with subjects to help them in case of any trouble

Educatonal system is not able to manage with all difficulties. It is vital that diagnisis should take into account all the aspects to achieve the best objectives of educational system.
I agree that so improtant isinvolvement of parents teachers and students. All this together can give children opportunity to improve themselves equally. It is only the way toprevent failures. Taking into account conditions in which the child is growing and the fact that every child is different it is possible to obtain best results.
For that reason very important is teachers approach to motivate children,especially in the case of children with some disabilities. Teachers should pay more attention to them, not only focus on best pupils.

It is my firm belief that most of the school’s failures are due to lack of qualified teachers. The vast majority of teachers do not pay attention to students with different learning difficulties. Therefore, they neither modify their teaching techniques to facilitate learning process nor adjust their demands to students’ individual needs. For that reason children with for example dyslexia are considered as lazy or stupid. A good teacher should consider both individual students’ strengths and weaknesses and modify teaching methods so as all students have equal chances. Teachers readiness to adjust to individual students’ needs is essential.
El Fracaso Escolar, es un problema que cada día crece más y más.
Todo esto se debe a la sociedad donde el estudiante vive , que no puede ayudarlo … y que en mi opinión, contrariamente acentua sus dificultades.
El Fracaso Escolar puede depender de muchos factores tales como …. problema del idioma, por ejemplo La dislexia, o problema de escritura, por ejemplo: disortografía que pueden conducir a una ralentización tanto en aprendizaje en el aula y la ejecución de tareas .
puede depender de las características personales del estudiante como por ejemplo ser demasiado timido… … lo que hace, que sea incapaz de interactuar y participar, el cierre si mismo y más con los profesores así como con los compañeros.
La primer ayuda debe venir de la familia, y más tarde de la escuela, asi también de los profesores ,Por qué los profesores, así como ser responsable de su discplina también debe tratar el plan humano y social y asegurarse de que usted tiene una clase integrada sin diferencias entre un alumno y otro.
Sobretodo en las clases de los niños con problemas de integración, como se mencionó anteriormente ,o con Estudio de caso de aprendizaje.
el alumno debe ser seguido individualemente y tambien debe ser estimulado y motivado,
los progresos del niño deben ser evaluados de manera que poco a poco el nino alcanza el nivel de cualquier otro, pero, sobre todo, para continuar después de la escuela, una forma de vida caracterizada por la seguridad y la sociabilidad.
If the pupil´s personal strenghts and problems are not taken into consideration, school failure may lead to dropping out of education and weaken the progress of knowledge. It is not always that the student slips farther and farther from the other, every pupil just needs his/her time to process and understand information. We have been discussing a lot about constructivism and individualism, so also here should we remember that every each pupil learns different way and needs some special guiding to find the best methods for him/herself. I think one thing that is causing school failure is that the school and the curriculum set pupils some requirements, and if they can not reach them, they will be marked as stupid or lazy students. A child can also be very intelligent and willing to learn, but the subjects and the way of teaching may be something that are not challenging enough and consequently lead to apathy. Instead of claiming pupils about having problems should teachers and schools focus on improving the education towards more flexible and personalized programs, so that pupils could feel themselves as individuals and special, not different and difficult. That can be made by developing learning plans suitable for each person, motivating pupils through giving some value to their own interests and voice, helping pupils to learn and to improve their personal ways of learning and skills, encouraging students to be individuals and participate in class work as well as activities outside the school as who they are and communicating more effective with the parents to bring families more closer to the school. I think the most important thing is all in all to make the school a place which is not separate from the society and the everyday life the pupils live. That could help pupils to get rid of the idea of that the school is a place where they have to success and try to get some results, which can easily lead to being in anguish and feeling inferiority.
there are more reasons why school failure can be caused. first of all the teacher must understand that every student have different time needed to obtain information and have to be able to deal with students with problems to learn, not only working with the ones who catch all information and produce it into work quickly.
secondly there could be too many students in a class so the atentione can be not divaded equaly and causes in a lack of students atentione, too much informacione and too many working hours for a children are no good for his mind and the concentration level goes down rapidly.
also the parents have to give support for their children if they see a problem in studies, its almost as important as teachers supprot, the bigest influence in education progress comes from both of them.
School failure might be caused by several different reasons. School: There are too many children in one class. One teacher doesn’t have enough time or attention for all of them. Also teachers might not always have enough skills or creativity to stimulate children interest to gain new skills and knowledge. Often teachers only know how to teach their subject, so for the children, who don’t have problems with studying, its fine, but for the children with difficulties, it might be a problem. Teacher has to know how to deal with children who have many different needs. All the children are not as skilled and knowledged as some others, but it doesn’t mean they don’t have ability to learn, they just have to be approached differently. Home: Everything starts from home. If a child doesn’r have a secure and stable environment at home, he/she won’t feel himself/herself comfortable anywhere else either. Parents job is to offer their children all the support and help they might need. Their job is also encourage the children to set their own goals and try to achieve them, built self-confidence and independence. Children, who don’t have problems at home are in school less distracted and open for new knowledge and skills.
All in all, I think, if noth parties would donate more of their time, thought and effort for children to cope better with their tasks in school, school failure could be prevented or at least the number of school failure could be reduced.

Like most of others, i think that we can find the reason for failure in school in various factors. Sometimes it’s teachers fault, who pay attention only to »smart« kids, who understand everything and they don’t pay much attention to others who have problems with studying and understanding. Sometimes it’s parents’ fault because they don’t help their children when they need help. Sadly, sometimes parents don’t want to admit to themselves that their child has problems with studying and they force them to study at the higher level, which is not suitable to their ability to study. Because of that child can lose interest in studying because they don’t achieve same results as others and everything gets even worse. I think solution is not only in teachers tutoring kids with studying difficulties but peers (other schoolmates) tutoring too, because they can help each other by explaining things how they understand it. And we should encourage children, not accusing them of not being good enough. Too many times, children with studying difficulties are mocked by others and that can only lead to loss of interest and denial.

The failure of children in school because of difficulties in knowledge and skills often leads to a variety of emotional distress. Such as fear, shame, inferiority. Lower school achievement by further increase and lead to even more complex consequences. If children’s difficulties and unimaginative you wrongly interpreted, it can not be helped by this, its problems only deepened. Due to not being accepted at their parents and hiding the real problem, difficult students seeking validation elsewhere. Here you find the missing attention and satisfy their desire to prove. Motivation for the school simply disappears. They say “I can not do this - I’m too stupid to do so” so teacher and parents must motivate children and help them that they do not feel stupid or not importan and stimulate their skills. Do not allow your child or student to negative self-image!
Petra Podgornik
This article very useful.Diagnosis and treatment options are really important to be considered.Failures can be caused by many things.The results in the negative.Human may be affected psychological and social aspects.In this case, the family and teachers have great responsibility.The failure of an individual not be connected external factors only.The individual self must be discovered, should be aware of their responsibilities.Families, their children comparisons with other children and trials failures of as a result very wrong.Criticize instead need to look for ways the solution.Failure is not too magnified.So its not impossible to solve.

I wouldn’t like to sound too much clichéd, but In my belief 80% of the school’s failure is due to the lack of qualified teaching staff. As I see from my experience as a student and future teacher, the headmasters usually employ the ones who have completed university abroad or with the best public recognition, not inspecting the practical, pedagogical adaptation to the occupation, which in fact, is the most crucial thing and vital pillar of success . No one but an inspiring teacher can contribute to the success of students. By the success I mean not mastering the subject in every detail like an unerring machine but awakening the need for studying as a source of future well-being and self-satisfaction.
Unfortunately, the main goal of the teachers nowadays is to fulfill tight curriculum, not necessarily paying attention to individual needs of students. The excuses like there are too many students in the class and there is no time… are just pathetic and therefore school faces constant failure. Why not try to be unconventional – give students opportunity to get the best of their abilities. Why not look at students as individual entities who differ in terms of intellectual capability and just try to look at their future needs?
There are some reasons why children have problems in school. First of all I think it depends on the family situation. When you grow up and your parents trust you and believe in you, you will be good at school to, because you don’t have to be afraid to make a failure, but if your parents don’t believe in you and you are afraid to make mistakes you normally will make mistakes, because you are afraid of it. My parents always believe in me and so I don’t be afraid of anything, if I got a bad grade I wasn’t afraid because I knew that my parents will help me to improve it and finally I passed all what I want to pass!
But it is not always just the child and the family there could be also problems with teacher, when the teacher doesn’t had a good time in school it will affect his/her teaching method. Normaly when the teacher is good (i mean an enthusiastic, motivating and friendly person) than also the class and the students will be good, because they where influenced by this person.
So it depends if the problem comes with the student or from the teacher, but in every case there should be a way to improve it.

This is very very important subject.There are various reasons of school failure.Student’s parents,environment,friends,teachers… influence to school failure.
I think if child’s friends are related with their lessons,child will be related with his/her lessons,too.Child’s parents’ behavior influence of child’s achievement.And of course the behavior of the teacher in class is very effective about student’s achievement.
In my opinion we must observe child’s background.
All students’ learning method, types of intelligence is different.I think teachers must be careful about this topic.Education must be personal.Parents and teachers must work together for child’s achievement.

Discussing about school failure, you should think about the child’s background, but also the school environment. The way child is developed, it’s summary of the parents and school. some times parents can feel, that their kid’s school failure is their fault and they are taking it very hard, but sometimes they have difficulties to believe that their child have some porblems with school, and that might lead to blaming the school about the problem.
I’ve been working in schools, as a school assistant, and also as a substitute teacher, and I’veen involved in that kind of situations where parents don’t agree about their child’s school failure, and are fighting against the teacher and other professionals which where involved. And it took a long time to get the parents understand, that every act is for the child’s best, and it’s not their fault. In Finland, some parents are also feeling shame if their kids have problems with learning, so that also afflects how they are dealing it.
Like written in ‘The school in the white political target’ artical, parents are big part in a schoolworld, but sometimes parents are not interested in their kids education. And preventind school failure, parents should be more involved, because the child needs help also at home, the school can’t do everything. But, also the school be able to provide support for kids who has some problems with learning. As a teacher-to-be, I try to remember, that every child is different, and that’s why every child also learns differetly.

Currently, we talk more and more of the topic of the school failure. Why? Because, according statistics more student are in school failure.
The hypothesis of each child is different and so, the education should be personalized, could be a good thing but it is certainly difficult to succeed due to the too little number of teachers. But, different groups should be take place in each class, and every child could move in their own rhythms of work. But one more time, this system would increase the feeling of level difference. And that is absolutely dishearten for children.
Does marks in school is a good things or not ? It is quite difficult to answer. First, because marks could allow children to situate in comparison of the rest of the class, next, they allows to know their level and see if they have make progress. But the bad way is that marks create difference between children and that could provoke the start of school failure.
School failure is due to family environment too. Parents who cannot be present to help their children have most of the time a great impact in their success at school. According to me, it is completely necessary that parents have to help their children to do their homework, to show that school is important in the life.
Alice Letouzé
„To prevent school failure is necessary to engage and involve parents, teachers and students to jointly take an active part in the educational task“.So important!! Students, teachers, parents and another school workers (psycholgist, special education teacher etc.) should cooperate in every possible way. But nowadays it seems to be a problem.. Parents usually don´t have (or don´t wanna have?!) time for their children, they don´t want to be involved to their school matters. Some children are able to go over without problems, but some children need help from parents much more than the others. They need to be supported and to have good and friendly study conditions. When they don´t get anything of that, they can start to feel „not good enough“, which makes bad influence for their future self-confidence. Each school institution should prepare intervention programm to prevent school failure. And teachers should be educated enough to be able find the reason of school failure and help to each student individually!
Michaela Máchová
This article discusses how to best deal with children who are failing to progress at the expected levels. The article suggests eight different guidelines, or principles “that govern the applicability of remedial teaching.” I found these principles quite interesting as they promote a multi-faceted approach to dealing with children who are falling behind. In contrast to the school that I attended when I was younger, where problem students (ranging from the hyperactive, to disinterested, to violent) were all lumped together and treated with the same method, as ineffective as it was. This article promotes a much more holistic view of dealing with children who are not advancing, including taking into account the feelings of self-worth of the student. I think that this is very important, as many students who feel that they are dumber than their peers find themselves discouraged and demotivated. In order for children to advance at a healthy rate, their program must be interesting and innovative, not the cookie-cutter approach that western school systems have favoured in the past.
Kelsey Rush
School failure is the result of a combination of factors, it is often due to family, personal, emotional problems or deficit.
In my opinion, to prevent this it is a very important collaboration between family and school, but should not be the only point on which we must act, because not all families work together in the same way.
A major responsibility is of the teacher, I believe many teachers impart only knowledge, without letting people know how to teach and without knowing those children who are in front.
Each person is different, has different abilities, and teacher’s purpose should be to get their kids to approach everyone in the right way. It takes a great empathy to be able to become a good teacher. But especially if the teacher wants to ensure that the pupil opens and shows his or her emotions, he must do the same because it is only in giving that we receive a response.
This in my opinion makes you realize how essential it is an appropriate approach to the boys, because with a wrong approach they finish making a refusal of school to the children, while education is a valuable asset.
I think the schools today, at least the Italian, are very individualistic schools, in fact, they do not go looking for the talents of individuals, but expect the same result by all.
Arrivederci Martina Rossi
Nowadays school failure is a very important topic, because the number of failing children is increasing more and more. And if a child or teenager is failing in school, it will affect their hole life´s. Lots of them don´t even graduate school. So it is very hard for those people to find a good job in order to have a satisfied and healthy life.
They reasons of failing children can be very different: medical reasons, psychological reasons, trouble with parents or family. And also if a child is totally healthy in mind and body there is no guarantee that the child will be a good student in school. Teachers play a major role in the improvement of their students. It is very important that every single child gets the needed attention and encouragement from the teacher. So I think it would be better to actually have two teachers in every classroom, that there is always one there to help.
To motivate students it is important to start, for example, learning another language, already in kindergarden. In this age most of the kids are extremely motivated. That would be a good base for the future, because if they already have a knowledge of the language, it´s easier for them to continue learning.
The friendly cooperation between teachers and students is very important to make a kid feel good in school. In my opinion “to feel good in school” is one of the most important keys for children. That will lead them to like going to school, which is crucial for motivation.
Sorry for the delay!

After reading this text i thought maybe we can make some tests for students, pupils before they are going to school. After results of that tests we will be sure what kind of personality the person is and what kind of disabilities she/he has got, or even on which subject is really good.
I think that today child with undiscovered disabilities being in a group or class feels guilty because it is cannot cope with tasks at school. He/she can feels shame of that and teacher punish student for that. Teacher has to be responsible for his students. That’s why is good option for student with disability to have own teacher who will be like a guide in educational world.

Education is an increasingly important feature within society. Where once only select social classes needed a high level of education, nowadays it is a necessity in every strata.
Our current age is epitomised by information. With the internet offering such easy access to all kinds of information and markets all over the world ever expanding, globalisation is occuring at an exponential rate. In this changing world we, the students and workers, must adapt to the new and changeable economic climate. The key to our successful adaptation is, of course, a high level of education. Without this education we cannot hope to compete within the work-force. This is why failure in school cannot be tolerated.
When a student leaves school early they severely limit their future options. It is now so important to have a degree of some sort in order to get the more desirable jobs. Without a proper education, a person can only choose from jobs which are more labour intensive and which require fewer skills. These jobs provide less security and freedom. A student who leaves school early or fails during their time in school has not been properly informed about the importance of education by their parents or their teachers. By allowing a student to fail, the adults who are responsible for their education let down the student and potentially damage their future.
Of course, it is possible to return to education in later life. Lots of people experience many years of hard work in low skilled jobs only to discover that as they get older the work is more and more difficult. They come to realise that their only option is further education if they are to escape their undesirable employment. My father is an example of this: Having left school at an early age he went to work in a factory. He spent over 20 years working there until he lost his job abruptly due to the factory’s closure. Left without any transferable skills, he started to attend college locally. He is now much happier and more equiped to deal with the modern work-force.
But although one can return to education at any time, it is all the more difficult as time progresses. My father found it very difficult to adjust at first, he did not know much about computers and he hadn’t written an essay in decades. Now he’s an expert! But at first it wasn’t easy.
This is why it is vital that parents and teachers inform students that education will only become more important in the future, and that if they deny themselves a real education then they deny themselves real opportunities.

Dear Seán:
Thanks a lot for your words, comments like this let us to learn about education and life.
I remember when I was in Ireland working in my PhD, I worked close to AONTAS (http://www.aontas.com/) and in the Department of Adult and Community Education (NUIM), etc. I remember meetings in Finglas, Tallaght, Cavan Monaghan (LEADER Program), etc. and many situations as described.
Thanks again for sharing this.

I think that the more individualized the teaching is the better result we get. I remember my lesson in physical education where teacher had set limits what we had to do to pass the course, she didn’t take care of our individual development. There is too many rules that teachers have to follow and sometimes is better do to opposite ( not to do like rules says, try to create something his/her own). All the people are not the same, so everyone needs more or less time to manage with exercise or whatever they learn at the moment.
Nowadays it is easy to label children if someone is different than others then she/he is autistic (for example). This is the easiest diagnose. We need more concentration ability to understand that everyone of us has unique abilities.
I think that sending childrens in special schools isn’t always so good idea, especially when there isn’t big deviances. If children can grow and learn in usual environment then they learn to respect the differences, also it increases emphaty sense. I know that feeling when teacher thinks that you are not skillful and she/he don’t wait from you the progress. Instead of supporting the teacher lower your self-esteem and it might be the start of the problems ( learning difficulties, communication problems ect) or it might be the motivation to be better, creative, independent ect.
It is important that children have around the people who believes them and encourage as well and don’t force them to do things.

I agree that the cause of educational failure should be discovered early so it could be treated effectively. There are usually big groups of children, classes for example, and it is difficult to attend every child individually. Because of this it is important to have some background information about every child. This way it is easier to determine diagnosis in case of any problems that could lead to educational failure.
In schools it is difficult to cater everyone individually therefor educational programs should be very flexible in order to satisfy the educational needs of every child. In my teen years the educational program in my high school was very narrow with almost no chance of modification so basically every course had the same structure and tachers had the same teaching technique. Students often thought they did not visit school to receive education but they thought they were part of the test to see if they can finish it. The teacher’s selection was felt by students in the first grade and many didn’t pass the grade and evetually gave up the high school completely. They thought they were not good enough and there was no intervention from school’s side at all.
Flexible programs are necessary in order to cater the needs of children. Course periods should vary because some children like, for example, theoretical education and others like practical education. This way the teachers can also determine what educational approach is best for children individually.
Parents should always be actively involved in educational process of their children. As a matter of fact, they should be the first to determine what kind of educational process is the best for their children and not only comment on what kind of grades they bring home. After all, they spend most of the time with their kids and they can help them find the best way to enjoy the education.
Like the text stated, there are many possibilities for school failure. Some students may not learn on an average level and may become discouraged and therefore give up. Other students may be bored with the way the information is being shoved into their brain. I believe acknowledging, understanding, and taking action on these different motives could greatly decrease the failure in schools today. Everyone in the school systems and in the students life should do their part in assuring that they get the proper education that works best for them.

The failure of the school the student with real talent among the school’s success can be defined as a difference.Education science dictionary of the failure of the school the student is considered confidential under the capabilities described as a success. School performance of children with school failure, remains under real capabilities. These children, usually under the capacity of the capabilities are programmed to use.
Student’s school is very important because failure to put the correct diagnosis in later life, yet very, very nice to put those times when teşihisi basic seated.
Of course, this treatment is the most beautiful stage just wrong to expect things to progress in school, a school, family, environmental, educational therapy, and importantly, students and teachers without the knowledge of the student expected to treat students to a good covering.
In addition, students in this healing process without offending Uhh hurting him. Each student should be given the correct behavior of the feedbacks and feedbacks in the wrong behavior.
This continuous improvement should be noted that the stages progressing step by teachers and students to see how much would be very healthy.
And ultimately the society in a healthy way to give you an individual becomes a student as a result of a successful and healthy working.
1 - PERSONAL REASONS FOR FAILURE:
Caused by hereditary factors and individual characteristics brought by the student from birth. Intelligence failure, physical or physiological factor is an apology. Intelligence failure and learning difficulties occur. Such children’s learning speed is slow. These children are learning in school with normal children they see the same fail. To do this themselves should be trained in schools with children of the same nature. Their special education, home and school life of adaptation can be achieved in part. The purpose of this training will be given to children, children make effective, arouse interest and attention, hand skills, self-manage the state to bring a social creature.
Children’s slow learner, a student who developed severe, the family of a close cooperation with the child’s teachers to determine the method of teaching, encouraging the child, should give him courage and confidence. Reward successful in areas where it failed to support and help in areas where you need it.
- SOCIAL CAUSES OF FAILURE:
I - Reasons for failure from the family:
a) Mental diseases, emotional problems can be specified. In some cases can be called emotional shocks impairs the child’s mental stability, prevent the success of the school. For example, almost losing a child, illness of one family member, mother or father to remain separate for a long time, the parents’ separation, a sudden fear, problems in adolescence and young child as a psychologically negative effects. In such cases, family, teachers, in collaboration with the teacher’s guide, children’s mental problems that can be recovered.
b) Domestic relations are not balanced and orderly, there is sufficient emotional and social interaction environment, families are negatively affected by the success of the child or young person. The child in such families has not been enough attention and affection within the family discord and instability, negatively affects the child’s success.
c) The child or young person’s talents are other reasons for the failure of the school on the expected success.
d) The period of adolescence can be a failure in the young people of that era created by the emotional reasons. The young people during adolescence, attention quickly dissipates, because of the emotional tension in the closed, narrow field of thought and interest intensified at certain points, so that the school performance drops. Failure of the child to be at home with the procession, demonstration of successful examples, such as siblings or peer groups when he continually failed as did the child or young person it is withdrawn, passive, depressed people who bring the state.
e) The indifference of the family against children or young people are among the factors leading to failure. Children return to school or younger can not find anyone at home to deal with it, a thing he asked about classes, homework, no school, asking what he was doing. Ödüllendirilmeyen, punished children for the school itself will remain indifferent, cools off from school, the course will not work.
f) Parents’ too harsh, authoritarian material employed in the failure. Through the discipline at home is provided. The child or young person covered by any failure of the approach. Children at every opportunity azarlanır, criticized, punished, beaten. A student is exposed to such behavior to be expected success. Grown in these conditions, children’s school, teachers and friends in difficulty of adaptation to environment. Teachers, family and contacts with the cooperation of all students in the teacher’s problems can be solved.
II - Reasons for failure from the school:
Teachers, school administration, curriculum, teaching methods play a role in this regard. Made based on individual methods of teaching an aspect of school failure. A program that requires each student to teaching in the same way, the student can not take into account individual characteristics. A heavy learners in the classroom, as there are gifted. Some of these students are prepared for mediocre programs suffers from frustration, some of them get used to laziness. Leads to the failure of the curriculum leading to Ezberciliğe. Negative attitudes, authoritarian attitudes, knowledge deficiency, the students and teachers in the profession are pushing against the failure of ilgisizlikleriyle students. However, teachers, positive attitudes and behavior improves success.
III - Causes of Failure Caused by Economic not posıbblty
Failure of the family also plays a role in the economic opportunities is limited. Tool-equipment of the school students can not, can not afford leisure-time, biological needs, physical environment, and school failure is common in families that can not be fed.
Recommendations;
Not to hurt students solved the problems of understanding the school, family, environmental, educational therapy and regular meetings with teachers and students is of course with assistance. best regards.
Basic educational needs of the society created in order to eliminate
One of the institutions of the school, creating a controlled environment for children that will benefit society and its attempts to create behaviors. However, the school’s students to acquire the desired behavior alone is not possible. Earned a significant portion of behavior occurs with the contribution of the family.
Children’s education, the biggest responsibility falls to family. Both the periods of childhood and pre-school education in his school years, the family is very effective in the development of the child’s personality. Especially with modern almond child education was dominated by western teachings. Anatolia in the field and the teachings of Anatolia, where thousands of children’s education did not match the accumulation of years of civilization. Families with children have increased problems with communication, the modern age-specific diseases has increased, psychologists gate etching has become fashionable. Loneliness of modern man in the family have pushed the wrong education.
Such problems are the reason for failure of the person. At this stage, the task falls to the teachers and parents. Individual parents better recognize

According to me reasons for school failure should be discussed much more in our society as school qualifications affect one’s whole life. They help you to find a job, be accepted at a university and so on. Leaving school without any certificates limits your career options extremely. As more and more people fail to finish school successfully we can already classify this problem as a society phenomenon. But what shall we do against this negative movement?
First of all it is important to remember that school failure not automatically depends on the student’s lack of understanding. In many cases teachers, schools and our society play a crucial role as well. Teachers have to make their pupils curious and motivate them to learn and if the teacher is not able to do that the children will loose interest to go to school after a while.
Although teachers are the main providers of school life, they are not the reason for this new phenomenon. Let me deliver you insight into the situation in Austria. In my opinion the cause of the huge amount of school failures is the negative image of our education system presented by the media. As pupils are shown as stupid teenagers in the newspaper and in the television, they are not motivated to work hard for school. Furthermore parents criticize teachers as well, which supports the negative image the pupils have already in their mind. All these negative influences bring pupils to fail school.
In my opinion it is a very good possibility to switch to a new type of school, for example to a professional school, in order to recover ones motivation. A new surrounding and new class mates may cause a melioration of the situation.

As said here in the text and also by other student, there are many reasons for school failure and by not ”fixing” 1 or 2 of em is not a solution. Like in every aspect in life - people are different. So are students and their capacity of studying. One is absolutely great in maths but fails in history or for example long distance running. There are few, who are good at everything or can keep up with the pace of intensive studying. That’s why it is in my opinion important for schools to provide the circumstances for students and not to expect that everybody should be evenly good at everything at keep the same pace. For me this is not discriminative or making differences for students - it is just giving every student an opportunity to get the best of their abilities. For me, it’s not some kind of division of ”good” and ”bad” or ‘’successful” or ”unsucessful” students.
An important aspect of school failure is of course the teaching quality and techers in general. But on the other hand, if a student just does not want to study or is constantly disturbing the work of the other students and als the teacher, then there is nothing that a school or a teacher can possibly do. Forcing or punishments never help. So it is important that the school and families are co-working instead of blaming one another for a student’s failure.
It may sound like a cliche, but if there is a will, there is a way, and a student who genuinely wants to learn and study, should be accepted the way she/he is and not be compared too much with other students capacity and because of that fail the school.

Katrin Pihl.
School failure depends on many factors which are connected among one another.
Pedagocig education has to be changed, because nowadays children are influenced by so many amentities that a teacher is not a teacher at all, a teacher has to be a psychologist. If it´s not possible to acquire knowledge about psychology during the study, teachers should be assisted by psychologists in classes.
Another problem is the family social status. Children who grow up in a low stratum often have problems in school. Educational advertising, state assistance and prevention should be more advanced.
Education in school has to become more individual. There are more than twenty children in a class, so they can´t be on the same level. It´s impossible for one person to teach individually. We need more teachers!
Another very important element is education in general – parents prepare their kids for life!

Personally I would not hinder the artificial failures because of development are equally as important as successes. The failure of our reinforcements, pointing out errors, and moreover, we do test our sincere interest in the matter.
As failure can not but be regarded, by focusing on other activities to interfere in the classical curriculum. Sometimes it does well for our future to throw off the stereotyped scenarios, as well as promote new teaching methods, the same argument might look like on other activities which are indirectly connected with education in schools.
It depends on how to build success and how it can solve. Instruction - knowledge.
Avoiding failure means not doing 100 percent of the activity.
Failure is certain lines are crossed with the fact that we do not have the ability to create this border.
I think it’s important to remember that not all failure depends on a student’s lack of understanding or a medical condition. In some cases it could be that the student is bored. If the teacher is not creating curiosity within the student it might seem like the student is having a hard time understanding, whilst he truly is not feeling engaged. Obviously all factors must be considered when dealing with a student failing. And teachers must not be afraid to think that it could have something to do with their methods of teaching.
Here we also speak about the importance of individual training, depending each and every ones level, but I cannot see how a teacher is able to reach a goal like this when the government more and more seems to want to save money and have more pupils per teacher. In this case it could be necessary with assistants to do the follow up on those who need it, but that might even hurt the child more than it does good; being part of a group of pupils who need extra attention can increase the feeling of failure, and it becomes like a circle of bad emotions that can seem hard to break.
It’s important that a child is stimulated and motivated and that it is taken into account all his surroundings, not leaving the child feeling different, stupid or useless.
School failure may affect the life of a child for all his life. Sometimes in positive way, but more often in a negative way. A child should not feel inferior in relation to other people and children. Position self-esteem to appreciate the child should get longer in the family, education. Nowadays, in many states, for example, in the first years of school attendance dropped from the markings, instead, the student is evaluated by worlds, sentences. It’s such a subtle form of assessment. In my opinion the problem is that some individuals are unable to reconcile their results with themself. Child with health reason and access, when his marks are lower, in the future will do more. Children with disturbed psyche will distance themselves from other “smart” and are placed on the so-called “worse” or “stupid”. The school work of psycho-pedagogical advisors, who diagnosed the child has to start right in child´s family environment, contacting parents and propose joint cooperation. Each person is individual, so treatment should be based on a detailed analysis of the environment in which children live, grow up, treatment should attend all family members.
The school failure is becoming more and more important and I think it became a phenomenon of society. There are a lot of reasons that a child could be in school failure, but what is certain it’s that this phenomenon affects the person entirely, as well at the level psycological as social. But before to speak of school failure we have to speak of child in trouble. The notion of “school failure” it’s hard to define, there is no typical profile of the child in trouble. It can be due to medical problems, relational difficulties, problems within the family, any others social problems as well as more little problems (like lack of sleep or dreamer child) but when they are accumulated it can be more dramatic for the school success of the child because of a decrease of attention for example. Children are in school failure for so many reasons, that’s why each society needs adapted programs for them.
But, I think that the school failure is not necessarily linked directly to the child himself. The problem can be exterior. Firstly, it can be because of the way of teaching, so directly linked to a teacher who doesn’t apply the good means to make progress the child. Indeed, the teachers above all have to make everything for their pupils believe and trust in themselves and their work from their youngest age. They must not have to denigrate them.
Also I think that the governments do not succeed in setting up adapted policies. Or it’s maybe (or certainly…) the too heavy budget that they should use who makes them “commitments” stagnate…
If we talk about the young people, I think there is a problem of thinking about their future and the difficulties to find a job later, because even a child who has never been in school failure and even, who was in school success during all his schooling, can have a lot of difficulties to find a job later, a good one as a less important one. So I think in many of cases, a lot of young people think that there are easier means to earn money, without pass by the school success. (like send drugs or other…). And it’s also like that that we realize the enormous problem which there is in our societies..
To this day, even if factors are many and different, I think that the only persons who really can change things (even a little bit) are the politics, even if all this is a phenomenon of society who includes a great deal of different problems. Must still they have to apply their “program”, and good ones… It must be true, otherwise there would be no such great differences in the rates of failures and successes among the different countries..

We often listen the expression “school failure”, but we don’t know exactly what does it means, and what are the explanations to this phenomenon.
It can be caused by a lot of factors, and that is why it is so difficult to avoid or to solve.
School failure can come from the family, or from the teacher, from the student, from the school in general or the methods can be inadapted for some pupils.
This problem has to be taken seriously because its consequences can be disastrous.
School failure can lead to depression, behavior troubles, lack in self-confidence or stress and anxiety.
Some surveys have shown that a pupil can be in school failure since the nursery school.
In my opinion, this problem has to be solved as soon as possible in the schooling in order to limit its damages for the pupil.

Firstly schools have big problems with finding right person for teaching job. There are so many teachers who are not qualified. That’s what I think. At least in my country. Teaching is supposed to be a job where person teaches, not just speaks about things and then control exams like how much in those exams are their words. Teachers are supposed to motivate students and give students different things and points to think about. Motivating students is the most important thing!
Secondly schools have problems with dropping out of school students. Teachers, students, parents and school should cooperate and make students feel like they matter. Most teachers just give up, when student can’t do something, but that’s not the way it supposed to be. Teachers need to work harder and communicate with students individually and personally.
Thirdly there are many students who need more attention. There are so many students who are confused and they need to be understand. In every person has some hidden talent. Teachers schould light their way, not make that way even harder.
Students are affraid to ask help, because there are many teachers who humiliates them.
I know personally teachers who just want’s to bully students, because they have been bullied when they were at school. That’s just so wrong in so many ways. And schools just let those things to happen and doesn’t listen students.
More individual job, more attention, more believe and students become more educated.
Nowadays, school failure is a huge problem all around the world. In fact, in our developed societies, having a great career is something predominant in everyone’s life. First of all because it gives a salary but above all because it give you a social status and recognition. I think that without a good job you have less chance to be well integrated in the society, and generally the only way to have a good job is to be successful at school. So school failure represents an exclusion at school level but it is also an exclusion from social life. That is why educational system has to fight against school failure.
I have heard a lot of time that children who are not good at school at a moment of their schooling will never be successful in school things. And even sometimes that they have to switch to a new type of school, mostly to professional school. And that is maybe the biggest problem, the fact that all the society consider that when a child can not learn in the same way that the others, it is impossible for him be successful at school. That is to say, there is a lot of things to change in educational system. We know that the best way is to implement a personalized education, but for educational system, this should be a huge challenge, as in organization than budget view.
In France, this problem is as important as in other countries, that is why the government is fighting against school failure. In fact, an estimate of 2009, from the French newspaper «France Soir » proves that at least 15% of primary education schoolchildren have got difficulties at school. That is why the French government have searched solutions: the first one is to implement supplementary hours of classes for the children who have got difficulties, plus supplementary hours during school holidays. But could we impose the same teaching to children who have got different problems? We have said before that it is not possible. In France, since 2008, there is a day of « Insubordination to School Failure ». The main goal of this day is to propose innovating solutions to fight against school failure and make that school failure become a priority for French government.
But I think that if the government can not accept the fact that it will cost a lot of money reforming educational system, it is impossible doing anything against school failure.

School failure can be due to many reasons, and it can start in the beginning of the schooling, for example in France, some studies has highlight that there is a problem since the nursery school. Compare to the other countries in Europe, French people are more focus on the program, the learning, and the evaluation, but children as to learn in a more funny way. A child who begin the primary school with difficulties will keep them during all it’s schooling.
Moreover, in France, there is also a problem because their is too many students for a single professor. The professor can’t be effective for everyone, because everybody doesn’t has the same level, and some students lag behind. And the French policy is to avoid reduplications, so if a students start with problems, and keep going in the next class level, it will goes worth and worth.
Then in college, I think that the problem is more a lack of advice to students on wich courses to follow. The educative system in France is made in a way in which students in secondary school have a lot a different subjects, sin specialization, and arrive in college without specials ability. So we have to choose between lot’s of differents specialties without any clue. I have lot’s of friends who starts many things, before finding the good course of study. But I think many people stop their studies before the certificate because of the big mess which is the educative system in France.
What can the politicians make to improve their system ??I read a study who show that it is Finland who has the highest level of performance for it’s academic system, maybe all countries should do as they do.

I think, fear of school during adolescence, truancy, failure, learning difficulties, and sometimes results in chronic disease of interest such as school-related problems. To oppose these problems, strange behavior, drug use, sexual abuse, depression, anxiety may also increase as a result of the use or atkol.
School phobia (phobia) always needed to go to school, and an irrational fear. Children going to school too afraid to leave home. This situation is seen less as most beginners, this new school, middle school, high school or go to school in a foreign interest. The school gives the fear of the response to treatment.
I Leave the house in case of runaway children, do not fear going to school but does not want to go to school.

Too much or less than the expectations of parents, family problems or because of peer pressure in school to escape may occur.

Sometimes, school, home and their way of conduct in cooperation with medical personnel standing on an implementation of a training plan kaçaklığı correct. See the individual and family psychotherapy may help too. If the child still does not attend school in another education option could work. Working life is one of these methods to prepare a short-term courses.
Dodge may be due to failure in school. If your child does not attend school will not be aware of what is happening in the classroom. Some schools with student absenteeism certain period of time in the classroom as a deliberate policy of automatically chamois. School failure for children brings many problems.

School is the first social institution at child s life. Brings the very valuable information to the childs , and socializing childs. School failure is a process where a student slips farther and farther behind his peers and gradually disconnects from the educational system. The end result of school failure is dropping out before graduation. Many cases of school failure happen among students who have the ability and intelligence to succeed but who are unable or unwilling to apply these abilities in the school setting.
Students can begin the slide into failing patterns at any time during their school career, but school failure is more likely to occur at transitional stages, such as when graduating from elementary to middle school or after a family move to a new school system. Failing grades typically are symptoms of emotional, behavioral, or learning problems.Why Do People Fail in School? People who fail in school may feel “stupid,” but emotional or mental health problems and “hidden” learning disorders, not low intelligence, often are the root causes of their inability to meet the standards of a school. There are several factors that can lead to school failure, among them depression, anxiety, problems in the family, and learning disabilities…Depression , Anxiety, Problems in the family, Learning disabilities etc.
As I said earlier, everyone will benefit from youth good education. That’s why everyone should be interest to decrease failure in education. Problem is multileveled. Starting with educational programs, schools and teachers preparation, parents involvements and finish on kids individual interests.
Diagnosis should be the first step with fighting the problem but again on every level of problem. Not only kids should be checked but programs, schools, teachers, parents as well. That will give us basic point of view where to start repairing system of education.
Problem with prevention is even more complicated. Its obvious that students groups should be smaller, teachers should treat each students more individual and programs should be more related to students needs but it sounds easy on paper. Its also obvious that parents should communicate with teachers and help with kids education. But I feel like nowadays its impossible to do it right away. It all requires money or time input and we(generally) miss these goods. So what to do? Someone said to build system from begging. It is good idea but it will never work nowadays. Others would change whole system. It might also work but its not going to happen.
I feel like the best what we can do is to focus on our individual role of kids education. Some of us will be teachers, other will work in government and most of us will be parents. Focusing on our own role will improve education step by step.
All thebest,
Karol Wasielewski
In order to be made to ensure the child’s education must be understood all the reasons why a child is incapable of learning, it is necessary to clarify any issues, and teacher competence in the child’s Technical capacity to understand and process the information received. All of this can be done through the analysis and monitoring the situacion.

School failure is a serious problem and a really big challenge to deal with. I agree that it may be caused by many different factors. For the school failure we can blame the living environment of a child, parents, friends and relationships which all can influence a child… Also home situation is very important and can affect child behaviour and attitude a lot. Parents should be a role model, always help and support their child in education and prepare for the future life. If a child has the motivation and encouragement at home I think that it’s easier for him to succeed. Unfortunately sometimes the problem is in a child and his/her bad attitude, when he/she doesn’t care much about school. In that case it’s harder to convince him about learning importance, but it’s a challenge for parents and teachers as well. I think that a friendly cooperation of pupils, parents and teachers is a good idea and can help a lot to prevent a school failure. Every pupil is individual and needs attention and individual methods of learning to make it. Teaches should be an experienced guides and friendly partners, also communication between teachers and pupils should be well because in my opinion if a child feels good and understood at school it’s less likely for him to fail and it gives him motivation.

In my opinion there are many reasons of failing. Usually if most of us hear that the child failed at school we think that he is not capable and lazy. Of course that can be one of the causes for it too, but I believe that there is always another way for guiding the child that this should not happen. There are more talented kids and there are weaker ones, but even the weakest child has something in him, something that he is talented or gifted in and of course the teachers and the parents play a big role in this and they have to help a child to develop one or few skills at least, so he would not be a complete failure. There are many other problems that can lead a child to failing at his studies, I think that the family has a major involvement in it and if there are problems at home usually the child is lost and not motivated at doing anything and just basically can give up all of his or her studies.
So there can be so many issues of failing, but I think that every single one have some kind of solution and family and teachers should be their guides of helping a child to develop and prevent any kind of failure.

School failure is the development in where a student is falling behind with his peers and progressively seperates themselves from the educational system altogether. The final result of school failure is when the student leaves school before they have taken their final exams to move on to further education. Most of the times school failure happens when the student has the ability and intellect to suceed but do not want to apply their abilities within the school environment.
I do not believe that it is solely the schools problem when it comes to school failure. If it is working for the majority of students within the institute then we cannot blame it on one factor. We need to take into account the many other reasons why students may leave school or why they are underachieving. Factors that contribute to this may be; the school it self, curriculum, parents, teacher(s), community, friends (relationships), illnesses, disabilities or the fact that the students themselves do not want to continue within the school as they do not feel it is the right path for them.
We usually forget about the last point I noted. We always look for a deeper meaning as we think that there has to be ‘more to it’ than them just not wanting to go to school, so therefore the school has failed them. True or not? We need to take into account what the child really wants. They may not feel like school is the correct path for them at this moment and therefore return to school at a later date. There are also many other routes in todays world where children can get an education, it may be through access courses later in life, on the job training etc. If a student wants to follow their dream early and if they have the talents to do so, who are we o stop them? Yes, we may feel irresponcible if they fail but what if they didn’t? We can debate all day about the pro’s and con’s for both statements.
However if the route of the problem is deeper and more meaningful, then people who fail in school may have one or more of the contributing factors that make them fail which are; depression, anxiety, problems in the family, and learning disabilities. It’s not always that the child has not got the intelligence to proceed.
School failure need to be identified as early as possible so they are able to receive the help they need. Many students will feel detatched from the school system and will therefore not know how to ask for help, thus it will be up to the teacher, parent etc. to confront the student, listen and guide them in the correct path. There are different ways in which a parent or teacher can help the child for instance; help them identify their strengths and showing them career options that use these strengths or encourage them to participate in school clubs so they feel more attached to the school.
In conclusion, I feel that the education system works for many (majority) of students and we can not soley blame it on the reason for school failure. I do however believe that it is a contributing factor but therefore so is almost everything around the child themselves.
Preventing school failure should be one of the most important tasks of the modern school.
Failure is not only unpleasant for the child, and trouble for his family. Bad experiences often affect the overall development of individuals, on her psyche, motivation, an image of itself, thereby contributing to serious social consequences.
From my point of view the main problem , not allowing to solve school failures, is an educational process that is constantly changing due to political, economic and social aspects ( the changes in daily life among the new technologies). Children are in the middle of all sorts of changes. Are influenced by variable interactions, stemming from the world around him. Therefore there is no universal recipe for combating contemporary problems. It is necessary to diagnose the child and the environment surrounding them itself and try to find the most effective methods of treatment of children with various difficulties in school. The task of schools is to prepare students for later life, to overcome difficulties, as well as to form an enthusiasm to work. Student must have the motivation to learn. In the prevention of school failure family play a big role, because successful in school depend on a family home atmosphere and from properly caring for a child.

The web page of European Commission says that today, about 14% of all pupils drop out of school each year. Fourteen percents is too much! The Commission has set up goals to reduce the rate of average drop-out below 10 % by 2020. The plan focuses on three areas, which are prevention, intervention and compensation. I agree with the Commission entirely, but I’m a little concerned, how the goals can be reached in all over Europe. Every European country should set the goals for themselves and do their best to reach them, but is it realistic? Does every country have the recourses, possibilities or will to improve the system?
(source: http://ec.europa.eu/news/culture/110202_en.htm)
Dropping out of school can be the beginning of a vicious circle of unemployment, poverty or serious social problems. It is a real problem and needs to be taken seriously in every levels of the educational system. The blame of the school failure should not be put on only one factor, because it may be the result of social, political, economical, familial, educational, etc. factors, as it was mentioned in the article. In my opinion cooperation between different parties is essential, but it is important to approach the situation student-oriented, trying to find out what the real reasons behind the school failure are.
Teacher education plays an important role in the matter, because even if the orders and the money comes from upper level, educational staff is the final party, which is dealing with the problem every day. Are the teachers of tomorrow prepared well enough to deal with the situation?

School failure is very common these days and its reasons can be mental, genetical or environmental.
I agree with the step to obtain information about the family background, a psychopedagogical diagnosis through an interview is an important step of trying to solve this problem.
My opinion about the importance of individual education matches the one in the article. A class of 25 students should not be seen as one homogenic group, but be personalized and try to see the individual needs and differences of each student. But how can one teacher individually supervise 25 children or teenagers??
Often the reason for school failure is the fact that every kid prefers a different teaching method and also has an other learning type. Therefor it is necessary that the teacher uses various types of teaching in class, periods of open learning, presentations by students, group works, visual aid from power point presentations, etc.
Personal reasons can also be the explanation of temporal school failure: problems at home, the divorce of their parents, the death of a family member, puberty, end of relationship with his/her girlfriend/boyfriend, etc.
It is therefor the teacher’s responsability to talk to the student him-/herself, his parents or friends and find out the reason of the school failure and then try to solve it together.

This article is a very interesting one as it discusses a problem that is seen quite alot within society today. To begin why are students failing within the educational system? Well in my opinion it can be due to factors such as to much pressure from parents and society to do well, peer pressure, students not being in the right level classes and also as a result of the student not receiving the right help. Nowadays we are seeing more and more students within the educational system who have learning disabilities such as dyslexia, literacy problems, physical or mental disabilities and so they need that little bit extra in order for them to get by! If the help is not offered or giving it is clear to see why many students are failing, the students then loose motivation and interested. As a result they then fail or in some cases quit the educational system all together.
I feel it is the parents role first and fore most to make sure their children don’t fail(but not to the extent of pressuring them and setting unrealistic goals for them). Instead to give them love, support and the help they need in order to succeed. From here I think it is then the teachers role to ensure the students do not fail or loose focus on their goals. I agree to the full that “…each child is different..” and that “…education should be personalised”. I feel strongly that it is the teachers role to accommodate for the different abilities that are within a class. Things such as keeping progress reports will ensure that one see’s when a student is slacking and where the problems lie. Therefore then being able to assist the student be it extra help or grinds classes to catch up. I think the teacher should not matter the circumstances encourage, motivate and reward students. However, I do feel that to a certain extent it is the also the students role to make sure they don’t fail. There is only so much parents, teachers and the government can do to assist students, but while that push is there for them I feel they must avail of the help that is given to them and work as best they can with what they have!
In the past students were not offered as much help as they are today when it comes to receiving an education. For example many school now have SNA’s within the classroom setting. These ‘Special Needs Assistance’ are with the student from the beginning to the end of the school day in order to assist them in areas such as writing, with their classroom work and even with their homework. Lastly I feel that when the issue of failing comes about or in some cases has happened, In my opinion the teacher, parents a and or guardians along with the student should work as a team to explore the different routes in order for them to get back on track and in some cases back into the educational system!

People learn in different ways, and the way the educational program is made does not fit everyone. I agree that it is important to involve parents and teachers to prevent failure in a child that shows the signs of not being able to cope with the tasks he or she is given. The fact that everyone is different and learn in different ways should make way for a new educational system with more possibilities for the students and parents of children with difficulties to adapt to the current system.

In my point of view, this article is very interessting, bacause it deals with one of the main problems in our society, the failure of education in his different stages is the core of for a lot of problems of the today generation. o much money is spend for education but at some points, the education politic loses track of thereal problem: Education and every form of developement is part of our personal life. To work sufficent with children you need to keep one busy with the personal task of education, personal and individual.
And thats the point of the article: If Problems of any kind emerge they need o be solved in a personal way.
Scolar support needs to include not just the direct hauling in school, but their needs to be a net that covers up for the child. This net is the culture in which he scolar grows up: It involve behaviour and support of familiy(especially parents), school(especially teachers), health care, etc.
I think this subject is extremly interessting and important, but at the same time it is underestimated by the people.
School failure is a common problem in today’s society, in the past this problem was as extensive however it was not approached in an appropriate manner. In the past the failure of a student was either blamed solely on the student or the educator, however nowadays we understand that many variables need to be taken into account to successfully determine the cause of a student’s poor academic success. I wholeheartedly agree that to prevent school failure it is essential to engage in parents, teachers and students equally as each play a vital role in a student’s academic success. It is important as a parent to encourage children with their education, parents need to dedicate time to helping and supporting their children with their school work. I also feel that parents need to stress the importance of education to their children from an early age. Parents need to play a strict role in relation to their child’s education for example insisting and checking that homework is done every night. In saying this parents also need to prevent themselves from putting too much pressure on their child’s education as this can cause a lot of stress for the student making them resent school work and the pressure it causes. Expecting too much from your child can cause them to rebel. Parents also need to learn that in most situations they cannot blame the teacher for their child’s failure in school. A common reaction for parents is to blame the educator without taking all the variables into account. The role of the teacher is that a teacher must be committed to her students to ensure they reach their full potential. It is important for a teacher to encourage their students, but even more important that they gain the respect of their students as without respect a teacher is worthless. A teacher must monitor each student’s personal progress and offer extra help and support to student’s struggling to keep up. It is then important to monitor the progress of the class as a whole and maintain a pace suitable to everyone. It is also critical that a teacher monitors students who she feels may have learning disabilities so that remedial help can be offered. In the past learning difficulties where not recognised making it extremely difficult for students suffering from these disabilities. However today remedial help is on offer in every school. Finally it is the role of the student to apply a mature and constructive attitude towards their studies.
To be honest this subject is controversial and is something that I have been fighting against in my home school so I got emotional and I wrote almost 2 sheets on this subject and then deleted most of it, so here is my final piece:
I have to agree with the author and say that school failure is a problem that needs solving. And its hard to find a simple way to do that but I hate the fact that if some people see its too hard they don´t deal with it at all.
To begin with - there are no failures, there are only the ones who need more time. Its a wrong thinking that if you fail you must be stupid - I have seen plenty of geniuses failing.
In my opinion the method that brings problematic children closer to school should be individual but not separating. They should not be sent to special schools, but a little bit more personalized stand towards them should give them something to rely on. I think tutoring system really helps. I have met and also been giving some lessons to children who´s mental ability is high but they just don`t know how to concentrate in school and if you once miss the train, its hard to catch one later.
Why a special school is not a right way to deal with the problem? Because when children with same problem are in the same institution, it gives them plenty of options to create some new ways to not attend school. Furthermore, seeing more problematic children around makes the school even more abnormal and unpleasant institution for them. And from my point of view its necessary for a young person to be in the middle of different type of people. School is like a mini world - you see all different type of people, you create relationships and you get the platform for the rest of your life.
So my thoughts to solve the situation:
1. Smaller schools, smaller study groups help to make study process more personal. Its easier to keep children motivated and see their abilities. (As a child having some stadiums of hyperactivity i attended my first 6 years in a school that had around 30 students, in my class 6 - teacher had time for me and further studies were easier for me.)
2. No separating youngsters who have possibility to fail from normal schools. Its harder to fit in after few years in special school. Who wants to feel rejected?
3. Toutoring for the children who need help.
4. Its important to make teachers see the problems - my personal experience shows that even if teachers see a problem they try to pretend not seeing that. It should be teachers task to select the ones who have problems, because most of parents don´t see whats happening in school. In Estonia regular meetings (twice a year) between student, teacher and parents have reduced school failure.
5. School psychologist who is available every schoolday. Appointments with the children that have problems to see the reasons and fix the problems.
But what is most important - forcing doesn´t help - its important to get and keep children interested.

I think this article is very relevant to the problem many schools are currently facing. I agree with the articles fundamental ideas and in particular with the following quote “each child is different, so that education should be personalized.” I think that the success rate of students depends on many different factors including their personal approach to education, whether or not they see it as something they have to do or is it something they want to do well in & therefore they are willing to work hard to achieve the grades they want. I think it also depends on their families approach to education and whether they are getting enough motivation from home without too much pressure. Finally I think how their school system works and how their teachers educate. I know from past experience if you don’t enjoy going to certain lessons then you obviously won’t work as hard in them as opposed to your favourite subjects. Just last year more than 4,300 students failed their Leaving Cert Maths (State exams for entry to 3rd level education), while failure rates in science subjects at both higher and ordinary level were far higher than in other subjects. Failure rates were also relatively high across the main business subjects. I believe this is due to some of these subjects being compulsory and therefore students don’t get to choose some of the subjects they would take instead which would be more relevant to the career they wish to pursue. I think this is unfair and these kind of results reflect badly on the education system in Ireland. I think students should get a more varied choice of subjects to study or at least certain subjects shouldn’t be compulsory as it would give students a greater choice and allow them to study what they are really interested in. This would hopefully result in them gaining better grades and at least then teachers would only have pupils in there class that actually want to be there and are not forced to attend.

hello,
the article reflects a general problem for every school.unfortunately the faliure of students is inevitable, so we have to face with this problem instead of escaping.the reason of this problem can be the lack of a strong educational system or different performance.then what should be done to prevent this problem?
well,treatment should consider the student·s sense of self-worth.students shoul be ready to make progress they should be encoured.the correcting programs should be motivating.another important point is that individual, personal training should be aplied to reduce the differences among the students.if these are aplied i am sure we can reduce the students failure.

I think that the poor results in school children depend on family relationships and teacher attitudes towards children. I think that parents should seriously look into strict child engaged in learning, it is encouraged to learn more. After all, science is a very important thing in our lives, our future. My opinion is very important for the student-teacher ratio. If the teacher is enough and manage to attract pupils and try to learn it. After all, the teacher work force, able to attract pupils to learn it. After all, the parents and allow children to school because the teacher knows that the work force more attractive to students that they learn.
Parents and teachers should know and remember that a young person should always remind him to promote the school and know-how is a large part of life, without which not go away.
The failure of the school is not necessary down to the problem of the school itself.There are various factors that cause failure of a school. Parents and students are too factors to blame for the failure. Again it follows the idea of a child’s motivation and the parents influence. If the parents take interest in their children and the schools welfare then this surly will have a positive affect. They can measure the reasons for failure but can they truthfully identify they truthfully identify the true reasons for a school failure? We are all aware of a person’s failure , they give up become uninterested. However from my experience a school began to drop in numbers because of a schools failure to recognize bad education and curriculum by a teacher. However parents did not give up on their children, they new their child’s education was more important. So they changed schools. They understood that any longer in the school and their child may have been the failure as well as the school itself. It was then however the parents job to intervene and ensure that the schools numbers didn’t drop and changes were mad to ensure the success of the school again. Its a parents jobengage in their child’s education so if problems do arise changes can be made.
I think that different factors play a part of a child’s failure on school. But in the end when is something a failure? Isn’t it a way of learning also, learning from your failures? Well anyway I think like many people already said before that parents also play a role when it comes to failures of a child, for example the pressure they put onto their child to preform better then they did on school. I think this is wrong ever child is unique and there for always learns different. The most important is that the child is being accepted for who he is.

If we would like to fight the school failures, we would have to cancel all the school system and build everything from the top. On one hand, it is not a bad idea, as there are plenty of alternative schools, of which pupils are much more succesful in their future education and life. The problem is, that nowadays these kinds of schools are private, which makes them unreachable for most children’s parents. And the state school system wouldn’t change, as it would cost a fortune, with a huge chance to fail, as changing such a huge system as state educational system is impossible to be done without mistakes. So the circle encloses in here.
But it would be good for the state to cooperate with the alternative schools, i.e. paying benefits to the talented children’s parents, so they could pay for such school. Of course it is still a dream, yet still I hope that someday states will be aware of the advantages of alternative education.

In my opinion a lot depends on education at home and on how much time parents dedicate to their children how they encourage them to study and involve them in activities after school. If they are successful they can motivate their children even more and I think that results can be visible. I am also teaching children football at school. I see that is very important for children to get along well with their parents because then parents are able to encourage them even more to participate on one extra hour of football training after classes.

Academic failure begins by the system and ends by the individual.
Systmes have to be improved again and again. If the failures increase accumulate and this again and again, for this time it will be the first contact point for improvements. Important is that the contract teacher, wins the confidence of the individual and grapple regarding the difficulties and of course also promote the individual in the lessons. Furthermore it is important that the parents of the childs talk to them in confidence about the difficulties at school and with it the problems and try to find together a solution for it. For example with private coaching.
For the teachers they can talk in the meetings about the individuals problems and try to find solutions.
Definitely by academic failure it is better to drill down on these topic and see it from the individual case. Mostly academic failure begins by the teacher and the method of teaching and goes over the groupdynamic and depends also on the individuals attitude and the upbringing of the parents. All these factors stay in interdependence to each other.
In detail try to find the one-on-one conversation to the child/student and win the confidence to find out the degree of difficulties and problems.
Intra-class ought be so flexible and recognize it early and adjust the nivel respectively the average of the knowledge of the group.
Well, this is no guarantee, that my opion will ever stay on these. Because with the everyday changes in the world and persons mind and the mass of media and informations and with it the growing of knowledge, the aspect of opinion will maybe change.
Educational system is faced up many difficulties. As we see there is no one, strong, clear system of education. There are allways some disadventages of a particular idea of the reform. There are also same facts that the people the people who are responsible for educational system should take into consideration many factors.Things such as mental level,the study of language,time-space ect. should be the priority during creation the law. It is also the good thing to involve teachers and parents to take part in the task of education!

I think that a big cause for a school failure today are parents. I often see that parents either expect too much from their children either they don’t really care about their school work. It is very uncommon to find parents whose expectations come from a child. Parents forget that children are individuals and that they have their own wishes and goals. Because parents set goals for their children their motivation drops and that can lead to school failure. In the other way parents don’t want to involve into childs education and want the teachers to do everything instead of them. This is not an optimal enviroment for a child to develope and in this way they don’t give what they could. In this case they lose motivation as well and don’t or have very low goals. This is why parents and school should work more closely and have more personal contact with which the school could in one way educate parents. But as I can see todays life expects too much from us so parents often really don’t have the time or energy and in this way they miss their childrens wishes, so I sure am not the one to judge.

There are a ot of resons why some kids have failure in school. Relationships at home are big active on child’s behaviour and his thinking. If the kids don’t have appropriate role model, than we all know that they have less chance for success. Problems can be also divorcea, alcoholism, lack of money in familly.
The second problems are peers who force the child on wrong ways in his life. We can’t forget the teachers who also have to be god role model to children, but somethimes they act like they are against to him. I had a lot of bad experiences with teachers who didn’t like me. In kindergarten and also in school.
It was really hard for me, because i was guilty for everyting, but still i didn’t gave up. I fought for myself and my rights. I had support from my mother and thats why i made it. But some kids don’t have support from home, they are to afraid of everything, some of them think that is actually their fault so they just give up, get bad ratings and everything goes down.
So all of this facts are very important for child- he needs to feel that he is loved, accepted and respected!
Dear Lejla:
This is the most important: the child “needs to feel that he is loved, accepted and respected!” and after this as an active frame that involve everything regaring the child work the most professional you can.

Estoy de acuerdo que hay muchas causas del frasco escorial y también pienso que es un problema muy grande y que nos asista desde muchos años. En me opinión este problema toque mucha gente en cada edad y lo que es peor hasta ahora es una cosa que nadie no pueda solucianarlo. ¿Y de quién es la culpa? Por supuesto de los alumnos, los profesores, el sistema de educación, los padres- es fácil decirlo quién es la culpa. Sin embargo tenemos que recordar que todos alumnos son diferentes y cada de ellos, algunas veces, necesita otra forma de aprendizaje. No toda gente tiene los mismos posibilidades y competencias para estudiar. Entonces en eses casos no podemos decir sobre ´´fracaso escorial´´. Al reves, la gente responsable por sistema de ducación debería hacer algo que pueda ayudar la gente quién tiene problemas con estudiar. Por supuesto existe un grupo de alumnos que causan el frasco ecorial solo por su culpa, es decir que algunos desde pequeños no quieren obtener un gran saber, les interesa más hacer las cosas menos importantes como pasar tiempo cos sus amigos.. Me parece que existe muchos suluciones muy faciles para hacer algo con es minoría que de verdad es como mayoría en ese tiempo, en siglo XX… Hay que hacer distinción entre los alumnos más capacidades y ellos que no tengan talentoso de memoria. Siempre podemos resolver los problemas , solo que tenemos que hacer es nuestra gana e ingeniosidad, nada más.

I agree with the most of the comments that have been made but mostly I believe that the failure of school depends on the change in school and our social live. Everything changes all the time, that makes it more complicated. For children it is important to give them safety and stabilty in education. Then it also depends on the realtionship between a teacher and his students. Like it is written in the article it is necessary to follow the childs individual development to act early as possible at requirement.
One other misstake that we used to do in school is that we think to long in the future. We are planing and preaparing because we want to reach our goals. Our expectation are to heavy and leads to failure. Instead of concentrate more in the world of today we try to se everything in long terms.

The failure of schools is a theme that focuses on students, parents and teachers.
How to identify the source of school failure? It’s hard to give an effective method for everyone. This is best seen on a concrete example of the student, which is the family, housing, education, parents … etc. I think that it is hard to get parents to cooperate with the teacher or child and support programs which do not deliver the expected results … and a child feels worse because of this. Also, science loses its meaning if it just does not understand that it learns for himself or herself. This may seem silly, but I think that love helps to combat school failure. A child that has some support feels safe. I also believe that parental mistake is the use of rewards or penalties for the grades … the most important thing is to believe that science makes sense and that we learn for themselves. Completely different matter if it involves an obstacle such as mental retardation or another situation where the student can’t defeat alone. Then the intervention is needed such as a psychologist or counselor.
In my opinion, speaking about the diagnosis and treatment should also be developed in more detail the issue of prevention. Not all parents seem to realize how much they can do in this area. Also the Ministry of Education could do more in that direction … ie introducing the youngest classes take learning to play chess.

Profesores y padres conjuntamente toman parte activa en la tarea educativa. Por eso, lo más importante según mi opinion, es el tiempo dedicado al niño por padres y lo, que provocan el niño en interes por afficiones nuevas; el arte, las lenguas extranjeras, deportes, la cultura.
Me parece raro que en éste artículo no haya ni palabra acerca de la sociedad, los amigos o el ambiente del alumno. Donde se crie y se forma. La compañía puede despertar el interes o ampliar esfera de interes del niño.
I have to say, that I agree with article. I think when we say “school failure” the first thought is, that the child is not smart enough or he’s not studying, and that’s why he’s not capable to pass the exams. It really makes bad influence for their self-confidence and so with every task that they have to do it and they don’t pass it less motivated are. Also, the parents have a big role in this case. They have to know what’s “wrong” with their child and they have to accept him as he is, without any pressure.
Schools should be prepared for all problems and find the best solution for child.

Causes of failure in schools come from the environment in which the pupil is, it can be family, friends, schoolmates, social environment, school environment etc. To deal with these failures is necessary to involve all- parents, teachers and students, like you wrote in your article. I agree that every child should be viewed differently and that should work with children individually. Each failure has its own cause and the way it can be prevented.

Every student’s learning ability,intelligence is different from each other’s.Learning is as special as fingerprint.It is necessary that students and their family have to include cooperation each other for school failure’s impairment.Every student must know something about every subject .But they must continue their education which they are successful in a subject.This situation happens that when various intelligence is used by teachers.Inability of curriculum increases school failure.Cause of school failure is not only students.Firstly families must educate their children .Teacher and curriculum must lead students which they are successful in a subject.Teacher mission is finding schol failure’s reasons .Because teacher studied this subject.
Firstly students’ family must help that they must be successful in school.Families must confuse their children .Curriculum must show different subjects for students.Teacher must lead to student that they are successful in a subject.Students must effor to be successful
School failure is a process where a student slips farther and farther behind his peers and gradually disconnects from the educational system.
People who fail in school may feel “stupid,” but emotional or mental health problems and “hidden” learning disorders, not low intelligence, often are the root causes of their inability to meet the standards of a school. There are several factors that can lead to school failure, among them depression, anxiety, problems in the family, and learning disabilities. Depression has been shown to be a leading cause of school failure in young people with learning disabilities. . It is a condition that can make people feel sad for long periods of time.Anxiety is a feeling of worry about a possible danger or an uncomfortable situation that is intense enough to interfere with a person’s ability to concentrate and focus. Students can have genuine reasons to be anxious. Students also may bring their problems at home to school with them. If a student’s family is experiencing violence, unemployment, alcohol or drug use by a family member, problems with the law, or any other upsetting experience, it can be difficult to concentrate on schoolwork. Learning disabilities are conditions that interfere with gaining specific academic skills, such as reading or writing. Learning disorders can hinder a person’s ability to concentrate or to process or remember information. When these difficulties are recognized early, certain teaching strategies can help a student overcome the learning disability.
School failure need to be see as early as possible. This task usually falls to the teacher, school counselor, or parents, because many failing students are disconnected from the educational system. . Parents can help by taking a genuine interest in their child’s school life and attending school events ,listening to and understanding their child’s concerns about school . Teachers can help by developing learning plans that support the student’s strengths ,referring the student for evaluations for possible learning disabilities ,providing referrals to programs that offer extra academic help or arranging peer tutoring ,teaching study skills and strategies to support learning . Mental health professionals can help by listening to the student’s concerns about family and school difficulties ,performing evaluations for learning disabilities,working with the school to formulate appropriate learning strategies for the student .
I think there are many reasons of failing. And there are a lot of different causes. Students who drop out of school don’t need to have a real reason. Sometimes they think that the study is not interesting or they prefer to go out. I think this is their own fault and not one of the teacher. However if there are students that are really trying hard, but still fail the test. I think a teacher should notice this and maybe offer tutoring. To make sure the student doesn’t fail again. And if they fail again, the student is maybe not able for this course and has other strengths. And then those strengths should be developed.
Then there is also the family left. If the student has a problem in the family and that is the cause that he or she is not able to pass. I think the teacher should help the student to deal with this situation.
So I think that failing is the effect of the cause. And sometimes the cause needs to be helped of changed and sometimes it doesn’t.

I totally agree with the statement, that educational failure is caused by different factors. Often the society blames the students for their failure, but I think that it is not that easy as it seems to be. For example in germany, there is a very defined capacity : There are too big classes, less teachers and the classrooms are also limited. Especially in big classes, when there are more than 30 pupils it s not easy for teachers to assist individual learning processes of students.
In addition I think educational failure is individual, one student has problems with learning, in another case it s a failure of the teacher…
To combat educational failure, it is necessary to cooperate in a team: Teachers, students and parents!
In my opinion educational failure is a very important topic that needs to be dealt with carefully. There are of course many different reasons that can lead to educational failure and often the failure of a child in school indicates problems of the child that are not in school, but for example in the family situation. Therefor teachers should be very aware of how to deal with educational failure. I totally agree with the mentioned point, that prevention is only possible if everyone is included: the student, parents and teachers.
Since I study special education I learned a lot about how to diagnose children and their educational problems and I think that too often educational failure is not dealt with right, simply because the teachers feel overwhelmed and don´t know how to help the child.
In my university for example only the special education teachers learn about diagnosis, which I don´t agree with, because I think this is a field every future teacher should know about, in order to be able to observe a child and its behaviour in the right way.
Regards Maren Henschel
I agree with the article. Surely a right diagnosis can really help. Parents and teachers have certainly a big role in these cases. Parents have to accept that is something wrong with the child and start to solve it. For example, spend much more time than normaly with child, training with him the things that are difficult for him and so on…. It’s difficult, but certainly an very important task.
Teachers should such a child to choose a slightly different approach and try to help him. But child should not feel rejected by other students.
If even that does not help, then is probably the best way to find professional help.

For me the most problematic aspect of school faliure is that it has a very bad judgement in the major society: faliure is mostly considered as a shame or lack of mental capacity of learning. This is a problem, because a school faliure can destroy the self-confidence of the pupils and causes learning difficulties in the future. School faliure should be seen as a good indicator of social, economic, familial etc difficulties, it can also shown that the pupil needs an another method or change of level of the education. The society should understand, that this can be a start of a good progress, this can help to understand the problems so after all school faliure is a positive sign.
The school failure
There exist many different reasons for school failure. These reasons have to be examined very carefully. Only a carefully examination makes the choices of an appropriate treatment possible.
The child could be overtaxed or not challenged enough. Here we are speaking about overtaxing. The child doesn`t refuse the subject material, but the capability of the child doesn`t make it possible for example.
Also it is necessary to have a look at the sphere of the child. The impacts of the private sector to the educational sector don`t to be understated, like also the impacts to the development in general.
Also it has to be examined, if the school failure is caused by any physical weakness. Maybe the child is really interested in learning new things and the support from the private sector (family) and public sector (school, kindergarten) is given, but the child isn`t able to do the task because of physical reasons.
Only if the result is determined carefully and meticulous, it is possible to thinking about further steps and how to threat with the school failure.
In my opinion every sector, is in demand to avoid school failure. The parents with their education at home, like also the public institution school or kindergarten. Every one of these sectors should contribute his part, to help the child. While the parents can have a personal effect to the development of the children, this maybe could be very difficult in school. The daily life in a normal school doesn`t often make it possible to care specifically at one child. In general it is common: Get the subject matter or make the year again….
In general I agree with the seven suggestions about the treatment and think they are helpful.
Stefanie Lorsbach
The failure of schools is a theme that focuses on students, parents and teachers.
How to identify the source of school failure? It’s hard to give an effective method for everyone. This is best seen on a concrete example of the student, which is the family, housing, education, parents … etc. I think that it is hard to get parents to cooperate with the teacher or child support programs which do not deliver the expected results … and a child feels worse because of this. Also, science loses its meaning if it just does not understand that it learns for himself or herself. This may seem silly, but I think that love helps to combat school failure. A child that has some support feels safe. I also believe that parental mistake is the use of rewards or penalties for the grades … the most important thing is to believe that science makes sense and that we learn for themselves. Completely different matter if it involves an obstacle such as mental retardation or another situation where the student can not defeat alone. Then the intervention is needed such as a psychologist or counselor.
In my opinion, speaking about the diagnosis and treatment should also be developed in more detail the issue of prevention. Not all parents seem to realize how much they can do in this area. Also the Ministry of Education could do more in that direction… For exemple introducing the youngest classes take learning to play chess.
Grzegorz Stępień
I agree with this article, because I think the rapid development of science and technology makes rapidly growing requirements of the school, so learning becomes difficult and not all students are able to meet the demands posed to them. Such children are not making progress at school, they often get poor reviews, and live with a sense of injustice, often they are doomed to a lack of educational success.
The term “school failure” usually defined as a clear discrepancies between the objectives of education and the achievements of school pupils and the evolution of a negative attitude towards the requirements of school youth.
Beata Klimek.
In my opinion, the main problem of the failure in the school is an environment of a student. The environment depends mainly on parents. It means that originally they have to create an friendly study atmosphere and conditions to the student. Parents can control doing homeworks, can help to understand a curriculum and can check results - failure or success.
After impossibility to succeed and if parents wish is the time to visit a professional - psychologist. There they should consult students failures and find a way how to improve the student in studying. It means to find out what are students strenghts and weaknesses. If we know that, we know what we have to improve and how.
According to students common strenghts and weaknesses, educational institutions should also improve their curriculum. Not every student is talented to languages, mathemathic or biology. But, on the other hand there are some basic knowledges what every people should know. It is the challenge for educational institutions and the creator of educational system - government to create an appropriate curricullum and an educational system. It should to learn students some basic knowledges from every subject and than, according to consultancy with psychologist and parents, to choose the best way of other students studies.
To sum up, there are three important things that create failure and also success:
1. environment created by parents
2. individual strenghts and weaknesses
3. inappropriate/appropriate school system and students aim of studies
If we would find a way how to put those three things into harmony, I thing that we could find an ideal way for everybody and after studies could every students say - Yes, I am successful.
Jan Fuzak
I think, the top priority must be detect fully and accurately what is the failure, to prevent the school failure. So we need some control mechanism for this identification.The feedback from students is very important at this situation. We need some tests, exams or some another materials which has specific criterions and features, can detect the problems.
But maybe sometimes, these are not enough. Because the student may have another problems apart from the school and lessons.So it’s important for the families to take an active role in the educational life of the student.
It’s not enough to deal with all of the failures, and maybe it’s impossible. And it may cause to leeway. Therefore, making the students realize the basic principles, emotions and thougts which lies under the misconceptions and the knowledge they can’t understand. And there might be some reactions one after another, that help the students success in the schools.
We know that we have so many problems or handicaps in our educational periods,so they cause failure in school and many people think that the reason of this failure is ‘the student.’ But I believe that the reason is not only a student but only his/her family,life style or financial problems etc.as well his/her birth,growth and health are play an important role in their education.
So,in order to overcome the school failure,teachers and families should be connect with each others and take into consideration the all points in a student’s life.moreover, they should take account of their mental level,their psychology and their capacity of doing something. finally it is very important that the treatment should be based on diagnosis. If we dont have any knowledge about the reason of failure,even if we try to deal with the problems,we cannot be successful about it.
The most important thing for the pupil in the school is teacher and classmates, in the house - the parents. Because parents the most participate in the pupils life. It is important that the teacher treat the students well and do not discriminate. Most importantly, the students feel good in the class, them can not compare with the better students than him, because not all equally capable, each getting more difficult to learn, than others. I think that teachers should not release student. They must to help with for students, they can not be ignored. For example, I know teachers who ignore the students in schools, and do not help if the students doesn’t understand something is subject.
It is also important friends, with some student interaction. Because some friends have a bad influence. School failure would not be if parents, students, teacher and the public would me more involved in school and pupils social life.

Basically I agree with the content of the article. But I think that the term “school unsuccess” is rather relative. If the child is judged in accordance with individual relation standard, it can’t be unsuccessfull. Every child is improving its knowledge during the school year, learning new things etc. So every time is more or less successfull.
School success is only the label which are teachers sticking on the pupils which doesn’t reach the same score as their classmates. Instead of focusing on children’s success they are finding mistakes in their knowledge. In my point of view this is not the good way. Let’s find positive things and let’s try to highly regard them. Good rated work is the best way how can we the child motivate to next work and how can we increase its self-confidence.

Learning problems are daily in education. They are becoming more often, mainly because they arenowadays much easier and faster to find. It is important to detect as early as possible in order to adapt teaching to the child. Learning difficulties may be associated with low IQ, poor work habits or bad conditions in the family. Research has shown that children who live in poor family situation have worse academic performance and a lot more learning problems. Children like these at home aren’t encouraged by their parents and often have to worry about other things in the family, so do not develop good study habits and also have problematic behavior. It is important that teachers recognize this, try to talk to parents, present them with a given situation, which is often very difficult, because the parents refuse to accept this. In Slovenia, in nowadays is a lot of emphasis on the detection of learning problems and finding accommodation for these children. Most of them have support and additional individual school hours. On the assessement have more time and if they have difficulties with expressing verbally, they can make all tests written. But we should not look at student results, but its progress, because this is in the process of education the most important - how many children benefited from school. Constantly it is important to encourage him, give him congratulations because only this will have a motivation for further learning.
I’m totally agree with the other comments that the pupil’s failure or success very depends on their surrounding and social basement. It also depends on the environment, relations and position of one subject in one group or a class of pupils. Also there are lot of factors which could be the base of pupil’s failure and its not the part of social basement.
I think the social environment is unchangeable or very bad changeable and its not in the competitions of the role of teacher. Teacher could help to join pupils inside the group by choosing carefully some activities and methods on the base of diagnosis. Teacher have look on every pupil individually and don’t compare their results with other pupils but with his own. Everyone is individual and its impossible to compare him with standards like many teachers are doing. For the pupil, teacher have to be a good guide and motivating person in the educational process, should be like a friend for a pupil based on good communication and solving the problems immediately.

In the strategy of resolving school failure I think it’s important to expose the changes of the whole culture that must be worn to schools. I would point out a very important menaing of comunication and participation of teachers, parents and children.
And the dialogue in this consider I think is the most important facilitator. By this I mean a school, as an open space for dialogue. In a narrow sense: teaching should be considered as a life of co-creation of the teachers, parents and students. Teachers should allow to the students and aswell the parents a wide dialogic space.
Teachers must be the ones that encourage the presence of communication in the classroom, but still lead and guide students with possibility of individual solving the problem. Only when every child in a classroom feels free to comunicate - to share his/her knowldege, opinion or feelings, the educational process is developing in a right direction.
After discussion with my fellow educators, I am satisfied that the causes of children’s failures are directly related to their social situation. In most cases is the problems in the family or children’s group. The important thing is talking with children about their problems with respect a focus on their strengths instead of weaknesses. I think this is the best way to solve this problem.

School failure:diagnosis and treatment
It is a fact that it is a wrong way to blame only the child because of his/her school failure. School failure can be related to many environmental circumstances, such as familial problems, the level of the education and financial problems…etc. And if we have so many causes , it will be necessary to take into consideration all of them in a detailed way instead of putting all the blame on the child.
As for the solution of this problem, school failure, we should firstly follow some stages of diagnosis as it is stated in the article. One of the important stages of diagnosis is the information exchange between the family and school because the school can not be with the child all the time and it is a common opinion that nobody can know somebody as well as his family can do.The child spend his/her most of the time with his family in a natural and relaxed way without any hesitation for expressing his feelings and problems. Therefore, the schools should contact with the families and exchange the necessary information about the school failure. Also, the schools should arrange their education system and program by taking into account the child’s mental level, perceptual-motor progress, level of language and visual-motor maturation.
And I want to add that the child should be supported through this period ‘school failure’ by his family, teachers, friends and the people around him instead of being accused of not studying hard or being lazy.It should be known that it causes the destruction of the self worth of the student and motivation. And all of these treatments against the student can just cause bigger school failure.Therefore, it is logical to diagnose the source of the problem from all the possible aspects and take the suitable steps carefully without any negative effects on the student.

If a child fails at school, it’s important to identify possible causes, which may come from family, from friends, etc. It’s good to devote more time to these children, but it isn’t always possible. In a normal class there are about 30 pupils and it isn’t possible for the teacher to give his time individually to everyone of them. Therefore, it’s certainly important for parents or special educators to cooperate.
Lenka Wojtalová
I think that success of children is the most dependent on the environment in which they live. If they have parents, which is dealing with them and assist them in tasks is this good for their success. Conversely, if the children are living in difficult situations where the parents quarrel and do not pay any attention to child is this bad for their succes.
Also important is the influence of peers. Sometimes they want to be cool in society and therefore there is a failure in school.
Teachers should pay more attention to individuals or do different groups of students. It seems to me a very good learning in stages. Example, the substance of mathematics in six classes divided into three sections. That what is basic. Then for those who are doing a little bit harder substance reduced rate and they will understend. For those who are doing it well increase the complexity, that are not bored during the explanation of the basis.

I separate the school failure to two different factors. The first factor comes with pupils. Especially I mean social enviroment. In the first place parrents and their family education and impact on child. Many parrents let children grow and do not care about their school performance. This is the most frequently cause. The single-parrent famillies, alcoholism, non integrated people from different exotic cultures are causes for diploma thesis. The sub-factors are friends, to spend freetime, sports and leisure activites. Many ones of them can keep children busy and so this is reflected in school results.
The second factor contains first off teachers, their methods and also attitude to pupils. I claim the teachers are supposed to be experienced partners with children. The purpose of schools is not to give bad or good score but to give them the knowledges, experiences. What will be better for man on adulthood? Thousands of learnt precepts and teoretical terms or the “know how” even though the school report is not so good?
Have a good reading. Vít Gruner.
Dear Vít:
Yes, I had a good reading…
Weel it is true that if you reduce the question exist two main factors, but it is also true that many other “simple” questiosn and factors are influencing in the failure of schools and students…

I think that one important part of the problem is attitude lot of children (and society in general) has towards education. It is often perceived as something that can be finished and whats more once they finish it’s a ‘rite of passage’ into manhood! Kids know they are in school because they are young and once they will be out of school they will be adults. More so, if they drop out early, they can perceive themselves as premature adults. That is wrong because consequently you have everybody looking forward to no longer learning. In my opinion this can be best remedied by parents trying to make their child excited about learning from the young age.
Martin Ferfecky
In education process, there is a very easy to make a mistake. Truth is, that the main factor is, that in education process are participating families, politics and schools. Every part of that process has to do everything to prevent of mistakes.
In education, we have scientific discipline called “Diagnosis in education process”. This discipline is very important not only to detect possible problems, but also to prevent of mistakes and problems of education process. Thanks to this discipline, we can not only adapt to changes in society, but make a plans to the future.
The basic thing that we can do to prevent a school failure is to follow the basic principles in education process (principles listed at the end of the article). I think that this principles will always be the case and should be a tool of every teacher.
School education fails sometimes, thats a fact. But to figure out where the failiure comes from we have to look behind the basis.
It’s not only the fault of the pupils, often other influences are the reason. Their personal environment for example: parents, relatives, friends. But also teachers.
To offer the pupils the best it is necessary to respect their personal belongings and singularity.
In fact I think teachers are the key peronality because they are able to help the pupils with their problems and respect each personality. However they cannot fix everyhing but anyway they should try and educate themselves to be able to help as best as possible.

The children failure in school.
This is in my experience at most of the time previous from what environs they are coming. If children come from environments where parents are alcoholics , .. etc.
This is reflected in growing children because they are young and they are looking for a role model for someone with whom they can be developed, they are looking for his hero.
And not only for a few children are role models their parents.
Later, his personality is formed by his friends. As the saying proverb. “Show me your friends and I will tell you who you are.”
From that we can see if we want to function with ours friends, we also must be similar to them.
And here is a good example of that why children have problems in school. First of all what I already said in the begin, because of their parents and the second of all because of there friends.
I think children needs help of their parents and their support and guidance to form his own personality. Also needs their help for explore language, level of language development (vocabulary, sentence structure, use of verbs, etc.).. Children which development are his parents involved a lot of, in my opinion they are much more successful and more civilized. Somehow for them it’s a lot of easier to turn into today’s society and not stand out of there frame.

School failure, as the article clearly shows, is not just failure of the student, but many different people. We have the teacher or teachers who educate the child, parents who take care and educate as well at home and the child’s surroundings or his school mates who have their own influence on him. I
At the faculty we are thought how to use different motivational methods, how to prepare an interesting class for everyone, how to use group work, which is stimulating for children to get to know one another and individual work as well and many other things.
This passed year we made a social diagram at my faculty for second graders and it was very eye opening. You see the children at age 7, how they pick out their friends and which ones are left outside. And for a teacher to know that, seems to me a great idea, because we can regulate this and put the other children, who were left outside,in to the social group in our case “class”, with our strategies at school, so they can socialize and open and maybe even get better at school, just because they will feel more safe to speak out loud and will be glad going to school.
Many times in my experience, the parents have been the main reason for child’s failure at school. I saw in many cases that parents had negative attitude towards education and almost everything was to much. They would be angry if a child had homework, that had to be done at home, with their help. They say that school things must be done at school, so they will not be bothered with that things at home. This is the kind of attitude I seriously hate about some parents. They do not want to be involved in child’s life, things he does, things he has learned etc. And if a child is not strong enough in his mental state, he will not do much for school, he will try to always find the “easy way out”. But for me that is the wrong way out.
Not thinking may seem a better way of doing things, but I’m sure, that is not the right One!
In the end, for education not to fail, I have to be a good and prepared teacher who knows the value of every single pupil in my classroom and parents need to know that their child is important, that it needs to be taken care of, not just physically, but most important mentally and with absolute care and love from them.

I believe that the teaching must be individualized. Each student has to find its own way dealing with school-asignments. Some students have a hard time working in groups (for exampel) and theese students need to get the chance to work in a different way.
I think we often forget in school the value of talking in the classroom, as a class. To have a problem and discuss different solutions in the class. In that way the teacher can see if all the students have found their place in the classroom, or are some students just forgotten and quiet?
Furthermore this is a good way also to deal with problems IN the classroom.
Teachers have a big responsibility and I believe many teachers consider problems in the home and inbetween students personal. If you ask me the problems that are existing in the home are probably the reason one student has problems with maths….For example!
Teachers must never be afraid to ask for help if they see a student who needs it. There are often professionals in each school on health, phsycology and so on. We need to deal with the problem before its to late!
Dropping out ouf school is nowdays really serious problem because it not only affects inviduals but the whole funcioning of the society. According to the reasearches the students who fall out of the school have higher probability to alienate from society. They have higher probability to be unemployed, live on social assistance, earn low wages, be envolved with illegal activities and even have more health problems. In my opinion it shows that this problem is not individual concern but a really serious challenge to deal with.
First the society has to understand that every social system has influences to each other and moreover students depend on many systems and communities. Different systems have to cooperate and change ideas and policies.
Secondly schools have to make prevention and intervention programms to forestall dropping out of shcool(school failure). In my opinion this is a challenging area to social pedagouges. Moreover students, teachers, school workers, parents should cooperate with each other to improve each other with positive attitudes, plans for prevention and intervention. This process should be dialogue between all parties not only between teacher and student.
Ultimately the education system should see that every person is an individual and sometimes some cases need more than just the usual manner but more individual and personal acting way.

En mi opinión el fracaso escolar es un problema que se vive, se ha vivido o se vivirá en la mayoría de los hogares españoles… Hablamos de fracaso cuando un niño no es capaz de alcanzar el nivel de rendimiento medio esperado para su edad y nivel pedagógico.
Dado que el único criterio para evaluar el éxito o el fracaso de los niños, son las calificaciones, el fracaso se traduce en suspensos, que por supuesto suelen ser masivos y hacer que los padres ya no sepan que hacer con ese niño o ese joven.
Muchas son las causas que pueden originar un fracaso escolar. Las más reseñables son los trastornos de aprendizaje y los trastornos emocionales: situaciones especiales que alteran el núcleo familiar como la muerte o enfermedad de uno de los padres o de un ser querido, el abandono, estilos educativos de los padres como puede ser la severidad excesiva o disciplina extrema, o bien un exceso de perfección o por el contrario el exceso de protección, el niño excesivamente mimado y protegido, suele caer también en la inseguridad.
También sería interesante relacionar también los problemas en el rendimiento escolar con las nuevas adicciones infantiles, la televisión o los vídeos juegos y el ordenador, que cuando no existe control pueden perjudicar de una forma importante su rendimiento escolar y esto afecta a la situación social siendo esta desfavorable por ello se dice que existe una clara correlación entre el nivel social y el rendimiento.
Como algunas causas pedagógicas podríamos destacar: irregularidad en la escolaridad. Bien por constantes traslados de un colegio a otro, por inasistencia escolar, que evidentemente hacen que el niño carezca de base para continuar el aprendizaje.
Otra de las causas puede ser el método de enseñanza del centro , en el sentido de no adecuar el interés del niño con los contenidos que se imparten, o bien la alta exigencia que no atiende a la madurez de cada uno, también otra causa es el desconocimiento de las adecuadas técnicas de estudio, o la masificación, es decir que el número de alumnos a veces supera los 25 , parece también incidir en los resultados puesto que se observan más casos de fracaso escolar.
En mi opinión la nueva reforma educativa trata de poner énfasis en la individualización y la superación de estas barreras, pero sinceramente creo que la reforma debería ser tan importante que estamos aún muy lejos de lograrlo aunque la recuperación educativa actual consista en un programa de educación correctiva que apoya que cada niño es diferente y único y que por tanto la enseñanza debe ser personalizada.
La mayoría de los jóvenes de hoy en día vemos como por factores externos o internos la vida cambia y con ella la sociedad, yo lo he vivido en el colegio donde yo estudiaba la mayoría de los jóvenes tenían un rendimiento excelente en casi todas las materias muchos de ellos en la actualidad han caído en el fracaso escolar, su motivo fue que uno de los docentes descuidaba su asignatura mandándonos para no dar clases al patio para contemplar la naturaleza, de joven no quieres dar clases así que no nos quejábamos, el problema vino después cuando salimos del colegio e ingresamos en el instituto suspendimos muchos de nosotros ya que no conocíamos la materia que nos correspondía y comenzamos con los suspensos y de ahí a acabar muchos de nosotros abandonando los estudios.
it is very important to first learn about why someone is having trouble in school. as we are talking not only about problems in learning but as well as when we follow students social interaction and if we see consistent problems occouring in that chapter it is crucial to investigate why this is happening. by learning where the problem comes from we can move to the next step where we study the problem and try to find a solution in how to cure it, that is what approach to take towards this special individual. it is only individually that we can solve the problem. the main aim is that we give the student tasks that he can relate to and he likes them and by preforming the given tasks he solves his or hers problem.
El temido y famoso fracaso escolar, hace unos años deciamos que el fracaso escolar era debido a la economia los niños dejaban la escuela para trabajar. Pero hoy dia este fracaso es mas complejo dependen de muchos factores un mal plan de estudio, poca preparación del profesorado, falta de motivacion por parte del alumno y falta de preocupación de quien a mi entender deben ser los primeros educadores de un niño, los padres. Pues bien podemos tener una buena politica educativa, mejor preparación del profesorado, mayor implicacion del entorno del alumno, pero si no somos capaces de captar la atneción de estos y hacer de la escuela un mundo atractivo la sombra del fracaso siempre estara ahi.
Estimado Sergio:
Totalmente de acuerdo con lo que dices sobre el fracaso escolar. Se trata de un problema complejo que tiene muchos elementos relacionados, en donde los padres, el sistema educativo, la política curricular, los métodos de enseñanza-aprendizaje, el profesorado, la psicología del propio alumno, etc. forman parte del problema en una complicada relación. Desde luego que lo que dices de los padres es cierto, hoy en general tienen más formación, pero la alocada vida que vivimos, estando ambos padres fuera de casa trabajando para traer un salario a la casa o para mejorar el confort familiar, están siendo letales en muchos casos: muchos niños están ciertamente desatendidos como debiera ser, pues son los padres los primeros, y mejores, educadores, al menos debieran serlo, lo que implica que la administración debiera ayudarlos a serlo más y mejor de lo que hace. Desde luego la asignatura Educación para la ciudadanía no va a ayudar nada en este sentido, ésa no era la solución, mucho me temo.
Saludos. José Manuel Bautista.
El fracaso escolar es un tema que nos afecta hoy en día y que nos involucra a todos. En mi opinión la gente no tiene suficiente información, es decir, que les cuesta buscarla, hasta que llegue el día de no tener otro remedio. El fracaso escolar es también responsabilidad del Estado Español, del gobierno, los cuales deberían dar más de sí en este tema ya que así, reducirían porcentajes y lograrían una mayor satisfacción de la población. La gente no tiene las cosas claras, no sabe quién quieren llegar a ser ni que objetivos quieren cumplir a lo largo de la su vida. Por ello el camino a la solución sería dar la información en mano, con diferentes salidas para gente que no ha acabado los estudios o que no encuentra trabajo. Se conseguiría con ello una mayor comodidad en la vida de cada uno y un razonamiento, una reflexión futura para sus hijos.
En mi opinión, estoy de acuerdo con el fracaso escolar, ya que las leyes se cambian cada 4 años y eso no ayuda a los niños, ya que así, los niños no se aplican tanto como deberían. El nivel de los profesores no será el adecuado para dar clases
pienso que el fracso escolar debe ser un tema que nos concierne a todos.es evidentemente que en la vida tenemos que haber de todo , pero hay muchas maneras de ser barrendero, carpintero, medico o panadero.es un proceso que evidentemente implica a todos los segmentos, desde el mas basico y sencillo como es el propio niño, hasta el mas complicado que son el de las instituciones politicas.Requiere una inversion de dinero muy alta, cmo se dice en el articulo, el hacer un diagnostico de cada niño que tiene fracaso escolar, hacer su debida entrevista con el psicopedagogo y ponerse manos a la obra con el tratamiento que sea necesario.esto es como si fuera una enfermedad y como tal debe tratarse, incidir menos es echar por tierra una mente, una cabeza, una persona, unos recursos intelectuales por falta de implicacion y medios.
Por donde empezar a la hora de decir de quien es la culpa del fracaso escolar, podemos hecharle la culpa al entorno, porque no, puesto que ahi siempre suele estar el problema, pero en que parte nos centramos, ¿en los padres o en las amistades? yo diría que las amistades, puesto que el “ser popular” por desgracia va dado de la mano de ser un niño que no atiende en clase, que va en contra de las normas, en lugar de ir de la mano de el niño que estudia, que sigue las pautas necesarias para ser un buen ciudadano. También el niño observa que en muchos trabajos se gana mayor cantidad de dinero que estudiando, además de que tienen un dinero al alcance de la mano para sus cosas, como comprar un coche, una moto, etc. cosa que no tendrían si estudian. Pero la culpa yo se la daría por supuesto al gobierno y sus leyes educativas, porque todos los fallos que he dicho anteriormente son producto de éste.
la verdad esque en los tiempos que corren ya no se le da tanta importancia al fracaso escolar y cada vez hasy mayor numero de estos. deben tomar partido para prevenirlo padres y profesores e intentar hacer ver al niño que no es oslo por aprobar sino por ser alguien en la vida.
Regina Jimenez Leruite. didactica general. grupo de tarde
Deacuerdo con el articulo, para prevenir el fracaso escolar tienen que tomar partida los padres, profesores y alumnos.
El fracaso escolar ha amuentado en estos ultimos años, ya que vivimos en una sociedad en la que los padres no castigan por el fracaso, sino que premian por el no fracaso, o incluso les premian por nada, ya que viven en una sociedad en la que tienen de todo. Los alumnos deberian ver el aprobar como una obligación, ya que es la única que tienen, y el sacar buena nota como un orgullo personal.

En este articulo, nos trata algunas de las causas y como diagnosticar problemas de alumnos que presenta o puedan presentar un posible fracaso actual o en un futuro cercano. Creo que el aspecto más importante de este artículo es el apartado de “cómo prevenir el fracaso”. El docente en cuanto vea el mas mínimo índice de posible fracaso escolar, debe poner modificaciones o estímulos de por medio para incentivar al alumno. Teniendo en cuenta que si el alumno no está motivado con las tareas que se le presentan, todo trabajo será en balde. El primer paso para la educación del alumno es que él se encuentre cómodo para la realización de las tareas y actividades, sino el siempre se mostrará negativo ante el trabajo de los docentes.

Bajo mi punto de vista, el profesor debe tener en cuenta al alumno, implicarse en él y adaptarlo. Tenemos que intervenir de manera conjunta con el alumnado, las familias y el resto del personal escolar, tanto el docente como el resto del personal del centro. De esta manera y desde este punto habrá que partir para someter a un alumno a algun refuerzo que le beneficie para que no conlleve a su fracaso escolar.

El principio fundamental de todos los agentes educativos y especialmente el profesorado debería ser la preocupación por asegurar que todos los alumnos progresen a lo largo de los ciclos y etapas que estable el currículum oficial evitando en la medida de lo posible el fracaso escolar. Para esto se debería de tratar de buscar y agotar todas las vías, métodos y medios de enseñanza que permitiesen a los alumnos aprender y alcanzar los objetivos educativos de una forma motivante.
En primer lugar el grado de ajuste que se produzca en el proceso enseñanza-aprendizaje va ser determinate para que el alumno progrese. Por otro lado se debe tener en cuenta la gran heterogeneidad en los estilos de aprendizaje de los alumnos, lo que obliga al profesorado a ser creativo,a desarrollar métodos igualmente diversos, y a permitir ritmos distintos y niveles de consecución diferentes, en definitiva, desarrollar lo que en psicología educativa o psicopedagogía se llama estrategias de “adaptaciones curriculares”, siempre tomando como referencia los objetivos generales o curriculum ordinario.

La responsabilidad del fracaso escolar no sólo recae sobre el Estado y la sociedad, sino que son varios los factores que intervienen
en este problema.
Para que el cambio o la transformación propicie una mejora de la calidad educativa y de vida, es necesario que todos, desde nuestro lugar hagamos un aporte dejando de lado la individualidad, para
que la tarea sea conjunta, dando una solución colectiva a un problema igualmente colectivo. Es necesario que como sociedad recuperemos los valores perdidos.
Desde nuestro lugar como futuros docentes debemos ser concientes de que todo lo que hacemos tendrá, probablemente consecuencias anticipadas o no anticipadas, esto nos hace reflexionar sobre
políticas y prácticas alternativas, para pensar acerca del proceso educativo en un sentido amplio y preguntarnos lo que ocurre más allá de las políticas explícitas, de los medios de instrucción y los resultados que cada uno trata de producir.
Poner atención en nuestra tarea docente tanto las situaciones sociales como la propia instrucción como parte del currículum, ya que de este modo se amplían nuestros recursos para influir en lo que
los alumnos aprenden. Debemos interrogarnos sobre las condiciones en las que tiene lugar el aprendizaje en las escuelas, en términos
reales y en término de políticas educativas, así como también ser concientes de la gran responsabilidad y de la importancia de nuestra
tarea docente para lograr la permanencia del educando dentro del sistema, y que éste a su vez valore el proceso de enseñanzaaprendizaje
para así poder evitar o al menos intentar disminuir el problema del fracaso escolar.

El fracaso escolar, un tema difícil de comentar, un tema en el que hay muchos culpables y a la vez es difícil decir sobre quien cae la responsabilidad de que haya tanto fracaso escolar y de que siga en aumento…
Podemos echar la culpa a los padres, a los profesores, al gobierno…. Que algo de culpa tendrán pero yo personalmente creo que la culpa, por llamarlo de alguna manera, de que exista ese fracaso escolar es de la sociedad en general. Nosotros mismo hemos creado una sociedad conformista, una sociedad sin afán de superación, una sociedad en la que los jóvenes prefieren vivir con mas limitaciones antes de esforzarse por labrarse un futuro…. Vivimos en un país donde nosotros la juventud no miramos por nosotros mismo, ni por crearnos una calidad de vida, ni por enriquecernos culturalmente; podemos seguir echando la culpa de todo esto a los padres y a los profesores o a la ley de educación pero creo que nos equivocamos, que el fallo esta en nosotros mismo. Si es cierto que hay alumnos que fracasan en su intento de crecer intelectualmente porque no tengan un nivel adecuado o como se suele decir “que no dan para mas” pero eso son los mínimos o al menos es mi forma de verlo.
Un saludo, Ana
el fracaso escolar!!! una gran problemetatica que lleva arrastrando muchos años el gobierno,tras cambios y reformas en la educacion.Podemos preguntarno cual es el principal problema,¿los alumnos,profesores,la enseñanza,el modelo a seguir?,cada vez hay mas jovenes que se quitan de estudiar antes por tener poca iniciativa y apoyo del profesorado,creo que apartir de ahy es cuando llegan los grabes problemas del fracaso escolar,la falta de atencion y la poca profesionalidad,creo que esto es un alucha de todos.
Son vários factores los que pueden llegar a provocar el fracaso escolar.
La situación social y familiar del alumno, la relación con sus compañeros, la dejadez por parte del educador al no implicarse y darse cuenta del problema a tiempo…
Sin embargo pienso que la solución de este problema no es otra que una involucración total.
Es decir cualquier caso de un alumno, que pueda en un futuro caer en este fracaso estudiarlo a fondo e intentar solucionarlo desde un principio.
Una de las causas de este fracaso, pienso que son las asignaturas que son impartidas de forma poco motivante para el alumno y no crea esa inquietud por saber, y por supuesto solodesarrolla al niño en el aspecto más estricto de los contenidos de esa asignatura, sin caer en el factor afectivo, o motivacional del alumno.
Juan José Núñez Reyes, 1º Educación física (Turno de Tarde)
El fracaso escolar es la principal preocupacion por parte de todo el ámbito de la educación. Esto es debido a diversos factores llegando desde la situación económica de los padres hasta la desmotivación de los alumnos por recibir clases. En el tema familiar si es por situación económica, en mi opinión no deberia ser ningun aliciente para llegar al fracaso porque existen unas becas que podrian hacer mas o menos salir del paso. Si es por mentalidad padres (excluyendo economía, deberían de ser los tutores quienes deberian aconsejar sobre el futuro de su hijo y el quehacer en determinado momento. Si es por determinacion del alumno, debería de aconsejarse para llevarlo por el buen camino y prepararle para que juzgue el camino correcto para determinar su futuro. Pero si es por el docente, debería de informarse de cómo conseguir medidas para paliar problemas, poner todo de su parte e investigar todo recurso que sea beneficioso para detectar el problema y solucionarlo cuanto antes.

El fracaso escolar es un tema de mucha importancia y creo que al que no se presta mucha atención.
Pienso como ya he dicho en otro comentario que la educación enrriquece tanto cultural como económicamente al pais y el gobierno debería de poner solución a este problema.
Creo que uno de los problemas está en la falta de interes por parte de los alumnos y profesores en poner remedio a esta solución por lo que creo que si los maestros nos planteasemos enseñar de tal manera que se motive más al alumno mejoraría bastante la situación, por otro lado pienso que el estado debería de enrriquecer la escuela con mas profesores y menos alumnos por clase ya que la enseñanza sería más personalizada, enrriquecedora y de mayor calidad, puede que otro problema que influya en el fracaso escolar sea la falta de atención por parte de los padres en la educación,la adquisición de valores y principios y la cultura de sus hijos, ya que al estar los dos miembros trabajando fuera de casa, no les pueden dedicar tanto tiempo a sus hijos, aunque es una lástima que ahora que en nuestra sociedad hay tantos recursos educativos,bien o mal planteados, haya este porcentaje de fracaso escolar,y sobre todo que no se sepa aprobechar las oportunidades que se estan dando para una buena fomación y futuro a los alumnos.
En mi opinión creo que el fracaso escolar en los últimos años ha surgido un creciente interés y preocupación en la mayoría de los países, un problema determinado por múltiples factores. El fracaso es: “la caída o ruina estrepitosa de algo, suceso lastimoso, inopinado y funesto”, también es “frustración de una pretensión o el resultado de la adversidad”, se aplica, finalmente a la persona “desconceptuada a causa de sus fracasos”, (figurativamente) “es un fracasado”.
El significado dramático de este adjetivo (fracaso), puede ser aplicado para
Calificar al estudiante o a lo escolar.
Hablamos de fracaso cuando un niño no es capaz de alcanzar el nivel de
Rendimiento medio esperado para su edad y nivel pedagógico.

Actualmente el fracaso escolar es un problema muy serio y al cual no conseguimos encontrar una solucion, ya que son muchas las causas que lo provocan. En mi opinion es algo que se ha ido alimentando por la sociedad, es decir, todos nosotros hemos puesto nuestro grano de arena, por ejemplo hay familias que no le dan importancia a los estudios, personas que no tienen posibles o incluso gente que necesita ayuda para poder estudiar y no la tiene. En definitiva pienso que es un problema cultural y con una muy dificil solucion.

Alfonso David Fernández Martínez 1º ED Física Turno Tarde UHU
En mi opinión creo que en la etapa joven existen muchas dudas aún sobre cómo se dirigen la vida y como se va construyendo el futuro, y uno de los elementos que figuran dentro de esta edificación es el escolar, que no sólo puede ayudar o afectar al joven en sí mismo, sino que el ámbito escolar repercute en distintas esferas: en la familiar, en el núcleo escolar, incluso en las actividades sociales.
La disciplina que la escuela al adolescente –joven es una disciplina de constancia que se imponen en uno de los momentos donde las inquietudes surgen de forma indeterminada, y en la que muchas veces otras situaciones acaparan el espacio y el tiempo para la empeño escolar. Es por ello que los jóvenes muchas veces se enfrentan al denominado fracaso escolar, que si bien es una responsabilidad de mayor porcentaje en la voluntad del joven, también es una responsabilidad social para los familiares, para los pedagogos y para los especialistas del área académica.
Me parece un tema muy interesante el fracaso escolar, ya que por más que se trata y se debate parece ser que no se llega a una solucion efectiva. Desde mi punto de vista es primordial la prevención, y como bien argumenta el artículo esta parte de la concienciación y la ayuda por parte de los padres, que deben jugar un papel fundamental en la educación de sus hijos.
Tambien me gustaría destacar, teniendo en cuenta mi propia experiencia, la actuación en muchos casos contraproducente que se lleva a cabo en las escuelas. En algunos alumnos, que muestran una anomalía en sus estudios, se recurre al sistema de clases de apoyo, que en muchos casos en lugar de ayudar a que el alumno recupere conocimientos atrasados lo hace retrasarse mucho más, y en estas estapas cualquier retraso con el paso del tiempo supone una gran dificultad.
En mi opinión el fracaso escolar principalmente viene de la educación que los alumnos reciben de sus padres en casa, en la sociedad de que proceda (ya que tiene más facilidades o menos), y en el interés que tenga el propio niño por estudiar. También opino que la educación no tendría que ser tema de discusión entre políticos, sino que deberían tratar como solucionar el fracaso escolar.
Irene Sañudo Vega
A la vista de todos (o al menos de los que se interesan) está que el marco educativo en los últimos años va de mal en peor. Los jóvenes de hoy en día no quieren estudiar, no tienen motivación para hacerlo y quizás tenga algo que ver las diferentes causas por las que actualmente pasa el País. Lo que está claro es que hay que hacer algo, empezando por los políticos, y estructurar las leyes que existen para ponerlas al día y así mostrar a los jóvenes nuevas posibilidades de progreso y de futuro laboral.

Bajo mi punto de vista creo que el fracaso escolar siempre ha estado y va estar en todas partes, probablemente en los últimos años se ha producido un incremento del fracaso en los jóvenes.
Muchas ocasiones se dice que la culpa es de la familia el entorno donde se desarrolla la infancia del niño puede que tenga mucha razón, ya que si los padres no controlan al niño desde pequeño siempre va a estar acostumbrado hacer lo que quiera y esto a lo largo de los años de la adolescencia se convertirá en quedase en la calle con los amigos dan vueltas o alterando la clase, cuando los profesores llaman a los padres, estos no creen que sus hijos sean capaces de hacer lo que le cuentan.
Además también llamarse fracaso por parte del profesor para sí mismo, ya que se supone que debe intentar que ese alumno consiga tener un rendimiento aunque sea aceptable o que se interese por algo que le guste para poder trabajar en el futuro.

El fracaso escolar ha sido en nuestro país mas alto que el promedio europeo. Lo que nos lleva a preguntarnos seriamente que es lo que estamos haciendo mal.
Tras el implante de la ESO, el fracaso escolar a ido aumentando por lo que podemos decir que esa propia “reforma” ha sido un fracaso.
¿Cuantas veces hay que cambiar de ley de educacion para que esto funcione? En los ultimos años la politica a reestructurado tantas veces la ley que no han dejado que ninguna de ellas se asiente por los constantes cambios que se hacen para mejorar, ¿pero donde se ve esa mejora?
Con respecto a los docentes, deben de verdad querer y necesitar hacer este trabajo para que la educación funcione y de alguna manera “salvar” a esos niños que se encuentran en una sociedad a veces tan desconcertada.
Lo que tenemos que tener claro es que el trabajo del docente en el centro educativo y el apoyo de las familias es vital para que los alumnos consigan su desarrollo y no se queden estancados en cursos donde no van a aprender nada, sino que volveran a ver contenidos iguales al año anterior.
En conclusión, es un trabajo de la union de esos aspectos, con la contribucion y las ganas de todos podemos hacer una sociedad mejor.
Un saludo.

Como bien esta comentado el articulo el fracaso escolar es no superar una serie de objetivos marcados por el sistema educativo, me parece correcto, pero en mi opinión no es solo eso creo que aquí también deberían entrar los valores los cuales son tan ignorados por esos niños o en otros casos en otros padres que se deberían de corregir.
Por todo esto y más problemas es cada vez mayor el número de fracasos y de abandono de los estudiantes y cada vez son más los niños y jóvenes que han de acudir a los psicopedagogos, psicólogos y psiquiatras y especialistas en recuperar o volver a la normalidad para ser educados.
A mi parecer creo que el tan llamado fracaso escolar no son nada más y nada menos que una serie de causas que hacen que el niño no llegue a completar esos objetivos como pueden ser, el niño que no se concentra, el que no tiene ninguna motivación, el que está deprimido por alguna causa, ya sea interna o externa, el niño que tiene problemas específicos en el aprendizaje etc…
Por ultimo destacar que el fallo normalmente esta en edades más tempranas que se deberían atajar, y estudiar más en concreto esa edad.
“más vale prevenir que curar” un dicho muy aplicable para este caso.
Manuel Izquierdo Cantos, 1º EF turno tarde
volviendo al mismo tema, el fracaso escolar es algo que ha exixtido, existe y existira siempre, podemos diagnosticarlo en todas partes del mundo y sus causas son infinitas, hay personas que no tienen ambicion por estudia, que suus familias se lo impiden, que no tienen medios, o simplemennte porque pasan, es algo que se debe tratar y por medio de los project works se podria hacer para intentar evitar dicho fracaso.

El fracaso escolar es algo que esta de moda y pienso que siempre por desgracia va estar ahí, ya que siempre va haber grupos de alumnos que no consigan los obejtivos k se les propongan.Esto puede ser debido a muchas causas,familiares,falta de motivación por parte del alumnado ya que no encuentran interesante las clases y un largo etc.Pienso que siempre va a estar porque ya sean politicos padres o los propios aumnos no se involucran como debrían de hacerlo,todo esto lo hacen sin pensar en que ellos van a ser nuestro futuro.Yo creo que es algo que deberíamos tratar entre todos y por desgracia no hacemos.
Juan José Rodríguez Perales 1º Magisterio de educación física.Saludos
El fracaso escolar, en mi opinión es, a causa de las leyes impuestas por los políticos, pero también por la vagancia de los alumnos.
Por una parte las nuevas leyes de no obligar al niño a que aprenda, causa una desgana en él para realizar ejercicios, empezar a leer, incluso de querer. Porque hoy en dia los maestros no se quieren “coger los dedos” con castigos, como quedarse sin recreo, quedarse media hora mas después de finalizar las clases diarias, simplemente para realizar los ejercicios no realizados el dia anterior, o leer los textos atrasados, la ley que aboga por los alumnos no lo consiente. Dicha ley estipula que no se debe castigar a los niños, pero si los alumnos de las escuelas de hoy están obsesionados con los videojuegos y demás tecnologías diseñadas para el ocio, habrá que despertarlos de alguna maneta ¿No? Si no entienden hablándoles suavemente y dándoles recompensas a corto plazo, por cosa infima que hagan, pienso que se les debe dar un toque de atención. Pienso que los niños no puede ser los que manden en los colegios, por tener mas derechos y menos responsabilidades que los maestros, y es lo que esta pasando, los niños no dejan que los enseñen porque piensan que saben mas que los maestros.
Por otra parte la bagueza de los niños, cobra sentido, por lo mencionado anteriormente, es mas comodo no estudiar y como este hecho no les afecta solamente en tener un suspenso, pues ellos están deseando de cumplir 16 años para trabajar y ganar dinero para seguir haciendo lo que les plazca. Ahí también le hecho la culpa a los padres por no enfrentarse a ellos y ponerles los pies en la tierra, porque aunque sigan estudiando y pasando de curso “por lo pelos”, esos alumnos, cuando en las enseñanzas superiores no conozcan a los profesores y no les “ayuden”, se can a desmoralizar y terminan dejando los estudios, por no haber aprobado ninguna y diciéndose a si mismo: ¡Si yo he estudiado! ¿Por qué no he aprobado? Y no se dan cuenta de que no es simplemente estudiar a duras penas, es comprender y poner en prectica los conocimientos adquiridos para poder interiorizarlos y poder aplicarlos en la vida.
Borja Delgado Riquel 1º magisterio E.F. (turno de tarde)
Bastante fácil y simple nos presenta este artículo cómo prevenir y resolver el fracaso escolar. Bajo mi punto de vista queda muy lejos esto de la realidad, puesto que el fracaso escolar puede tener muchas y muy diferentes causas; puede ser por falta de atención del alumno, falta de motivación, problemas familiares, sociales, economicos, políticos, educativos, psicológicos entre muchos otros. Es por ello que la tarea de resolver el fracaso escolar es tan dificil.
Siempre se ha tendido a hechar la culpa del fracaso escolar a los profesores y a los padres. Tiene su parte de razón, pues son dos factores que pueden ser causa del fracaso escolar, pero no son los únicos, como ya he dicho antes son muy numerosas las posibles causas.
La parte de razón la tiene porque puede que el alumno no esté motivado y esto puede ser tanto por los profesores que no imparten de una forma amena sus clases, de una forma que el alumno esté motivado; como por los padres que dan a sus hijos regalos por las buenas notas, cometiendo un gran error, pues la mejor motivación es la intrínseca, en la que el alumno trata de mejorar sin esperar una recompensa a cambio, tan solo por superarse a sí mismo y estar satisfecho por haber hecho correctamente lo que tenía que hacer. Desgraciadamente son bastante escasos estos casos. Quizás sea esta otra de las muchas causas del fracaso escolar.

Que es el fracaso Escolar en la Escuela: el niño sufre a consecuencia del “fracaso escolar”, pero ni lo crea ni lo difunde, ni lo provoca. Este se limita a sufrir las consecuencias del fracaso escolar.
Lo único real es que hay niños con dificultades, las cuales pueden ser muy variadas y el fracaso escolar se produce cuando algo falla en algún punto del sistema educativo, y el niño con dificultades no es ayudado para superarlas.
Lo primero es que alguien se dé cuenta a tiempo y que se le dé la necesaria importancia a ese niño con dificultades, podrán estudiar esas dificultades y poner en marcha las acciones necesarias para superarlas.
Tratamiento:
En según qué casos, la ayuda pasará por rehacer los objetivos educativos señalados para el niño, darles una mayor atención, unas clases especiales, una adaptación de los objetivos educativos, etc.
Es cierto que la incompetencia puede estar en cualquier punto del sistema educativo y que la política dirige dicho sistema, pero desde mi punto de vista a la hora de detectar el problema en mayor parte de la responsabilidad se la lleva el docente-tutor y en segundo lugar los padres. En su posterior tratamiento la ineptitud será psicopedagogos o psicólogo que debe tratar al niño.
También es cierto que los docentes están colocados en la línea de fuego y, a veces, ni se les prepara ni se les ayuda a la hora de programar los aprendizajes de sus alumnos.
Con referencia a la Ley de Educación, gracias a Dios a cambiado y mejorado desde que yo era alumna en la escuela con la Ley 14/1970, de 4 de agosto, General de Educación y Financiamiento de la Reforma Educativa (antigua E.G.B.)
Hoy con la LOE (2006)la llamada “Reforma” educativa viene a intentar resolver el problema del “fracaso escolar”. Su mayor mérito es: reconocer que no puede exigirse el mismo nivel de objetivos para cada niño, e intentar la adaptación de la enseñanza a las posibilidades reales de cada caso.

Los factores que dificultan el aprendizaje, y por consiguiente pueden llevar al fracaso escolar son varios,tales como capacidades inadecuadas del niño,el ambiente familiar y social en el que viva,además de motivos pedagógicos y médicos. Averiguar la causa es primordial para saber hacia dónde encaminar las soluciones. Sin embargo, hay una tendencia unánime e injusta,que mide a todos y a todas por el mismo patrón.
Desde mi punto de vista,hay que concienciar a esta sociedad,de que no es sólo trabajo de los educadores el asegurar la integración académica del alumno, sino que gran parte de esa tarea corresponde a los padres.Pienso, que hoy en día,la mayoría de los padres, se han “olvidado” de esa labor y la han relegado a otros. Además,el papel que ejerce la política tampoco es de mucha ayuda para solventar este gran problema.
Francisco José Rodríguez Núñez
El fracaso escolar tiene en el punto de la diana de la culpabilidad a los padres y a los profesores. Estos ultimo tiene mucho peso en la educación, no solo como simple maestros que se pone delante de ello he intenta incúlcales una cantidad de contenidos que a veces son inútiles, por eso los profesores deben de tener cuidado en las formas en el aula y darse cuenta de que a quienes esta enseñando. Para logra una enseñanza satisfactoria el profesor debe saber utilizar la metodología correcta en cada momento.
Los padre debe de poner mas atención a los estudios de cada hijo, ayudándolo y llevando un diario de el y debe de tener muy presente que esa es la base que va a tener el niño después y que va a ser difícil de cambiarla, ahora es el momento que mas apoyo necesita los niños y no cuando el profesor llama a las casa de cada unos de los padres para decirle a ellos que el niño no trabaja bien, no se comporta bien y esas cosas, lo peor es que hay padres que se ofenden ante eso y no intentan ayudar y mejorar en la educación de sus propios hijos.

El fracaso escolar se debe a infinidad de causas y como se comenta en el articulo sobre el complicado mundo del currículo y de los valores educativos.
El gran fracaso escolar puede ser debido a los medios de comunicación, televisión, internet, consolas etc., y la gran pasividad de padres y profesores y de la sociedad en general. Debemos reflexionar sobre el tema, unir a todos los implicados, hacer un estudio serio.

El fracaso escolar, en los últimos tiempos, es el tema principal cada vez que se habla de la educación. Hay muchos factores que conllevan a los alumnos al fracaso escolar; ya sea económicos familiares, sociales, educativas… Pienso que hay algunos factores fundamentales que fomentan cada vez más a que este fracaso continúe, como son:
Por una parte; el gobierno, ya que está constantemente cambiando leyes, normativas… haciendo que la educación no sea lo suficientemente estable.
Por otra parte; gran culpa la tienen los alumnos, que deberían poner más interés en estudiar para así obtener un futuro mejor. Creo que los profesores también deberian hacer que sus clases motivaran a los alumnos, poner un poco de su parte. Los padres también son un pilar muy importante, pues sirve de gran influencia para que el alumno obtenga un plan de estudio adecuado en casa, que se preocupen por el niño, ect…
En mi opinión, lo más cierto sería una reforma educativa que obtenga pilares fuertes e irremplazables.
Desde mi punto de vista, el fracaso escolar viene dado por la situación familiar en la que se encuentra el alumno, es cierto que influyen factores como la relación que tengan con otros compañeros, el compañerismo en la clas, pero todo esto no puede ser correcto sin una vida familiar adecuada y explico a qué me refiero. La mayoría de alumnos que ya no siente interés por el estudio o por la asistencia al centro escolar, es porque su familia se preocupa bien poco por sus hámbitos de estudios, la relación con los otros compañeros…etc, hoy en día todo se compensa regalandole una play station al niño o dándole dinero para que se compre tonterías. Algunos dirían que estoy equivocado porque no siempre son los padres, sino con el tipo de amistad que tiene el alumno fuera del centro etc… y yo les diría que hay también interviene el factor familiar, por no perocuparse de las amistades que están haciendo que su hijo se desvíe de su objetivo en esa etapa que es estudiar. En definitiva, si el alumno fuera más atendido por sus familiares de manera correcta, habrían menos fracasos esolares.
Nicolás Moral Luna, 1º E.Física turno tarde
En mi opinión creo que el fracaso escolar se está tratando cada vez mejor, ya que a mi parecer hay menos fracaso escolar que hace unos años atrás.
Me parece que los profesores están cada vez más preparados y capacitados para actuar en el fracaso escolar de sus alumnos. Es cierto que todavía nos queda algo muy importante que cambiar para poder hacer esta tarea bien y es que nos fijamos más en la nota cuantitativa que en el progreso del alumno en otros aspectos de la clase; el examen teórico y su nota correspondiente solo debería de ser un apunte más para el profesor para saber si el alumno entendió las explicaciones o si le gusto la materia, pero no debería de ser el único aspecto en el que el profesor debe fijarse y mucho menos el más importante. Aunque claro está nos piden que cada alumno adquiera unos conocimientos básicos para poder pasar de curso y si no lo demuestra en el examen es difícil saber si los ha adquirido, para mi ese es el problema.
Por otra parte, creo que los padres cada vez están más interesados en la educación de sus hijos, otra cosa es que por motivos de trabajo no tengan tiempo para atender a sus hijos con respecto a la escuela. También tenemos que darnos cuenta de que hay culturas en las que los padres no tienen ningún tipo de interés en que sus hijos vayan a la escuela, como por ejemplo la cultura gitana.
Aparte tengo que decir y soy consciente de ello porque vivo junto a un poblado chabolista, que hay un autobús que va a recoger a los niños a sus casas para que estos vayan a la escuela y no haya absentismo escolar, otra cosa es lo que los niños trabajen dentro de las clases.

Respecto a este tema pienso que la gran culpa de fracaso escolar existente en estos momento es de los padres, ya que hoy en día los niños pasan la mayor parte del tiempo sin tener al lado una figura materna o paterna por lo que la educación de los niños de hoy en día no es la mas correcta.
Pienso que en la sociedad de hoy en dia los padres tienen un mal concepto del significado de la palabra escuela ya que en estos momentos ellos creen y actúan como si la educación de los hijos la tuviera q relaizar los profesores cuando en realidad el profesor es un guía de conocimiento y conocimientos que prepara al niño a lo largo de su vida.
Tampoco podemos olvidarnos del restos de componentes que ayudan a que cada año exista mas fracaso escolar como la ley de enseñanza de la actualidad, la poca devoción por parte de algunos profesores etc etc..
El fracaso escolar es muy común en las escuelas, ya que cada vez son menos los niños que terminan la Educación Secundaria Obligatoria, bien porque no pueden al tener dificultades mentales o físicas o simplemente porque no quieren.
Pienso que lo primero que hay que hacer es hablar todos los docentes que le dan clases a los alumnos, reunirlos y poner puntos en común y cómo se podría evitar o poder mejorar. Después se les comunicaría a los padres y ya reaccionar ante el caso.
Para finalizar, quizás la forma de solucionar esto es motivando al niño/a, dando clases amenas o ya en casos especiales dedicarles más tiempo del necesario.
María José Varela Moreno
1º Ed.Física Universidad de Huelva
El fracaso escolar por desgracia hoy en día es muy habitual verlo, ya que la mayoría de alumnos de colegios e institutos no se toman enserio la educación, esto pueden ser debido a muchos aspectos como hemos leído en el comentario, ya sean económicos, familiares, por amigos o por el ambiente en el que viva.
Los primeros que deberían tomar medidas tendría que ser los padres de estos alumnos ya que si de pequeños no los educan bien luego los profesores por mucho que lo intenten no lo van a conseguir dado que si en la escuela le transmiten unos valores y luego en casa otros el niño no sabrá que hacer y como la figura paterna o materna siempre es mas fuerte que la del docente el niño actuará como lo haga en su casa, por ello es fundamental que la familia ayude a que supere los objetivos necesarios para no caer en el fracaso escolar.
El tema político relacionado con la educación prefiero no tocarlo ya que hay diversas opiniones sobre ello.
José Mª Roldán Lafuente
Primero magisterio educación física
El fracaso escolar, hoy en día, puede deberse entre otras muchas cosas a las dificultades de aprendizaje que presente el alumnado, a la falta de adaptación por parte del sistema a las necesidades específicas de cada alumno, al desinterés por parte del alumnado para continuar formándose, a la falta de motivación, al desinterés por parte de familiares, a los fines e intereses políticos…
Para acabar con el fracaso escolar habría que empezar desvinculando la educación de los intereses políticos, para una vez conseguida una verdadera reforma educativa, concienciar tanto a padres, alumnos y profesores de la importancia de ello, y poder así ejercer una prevención eficaz para poner fin a este problema que cada vez se hace notar más en la sociedad actual. Creo que el problema no está en el niño que no se adapta al sistema, sino en un sistema al que es muy difícil adaptarse ya que éste no tiene en cuenta las características del alumnado, sus intereses…
Es esencial tener en cuenta la prevención del fracaso escolar y concienciar a todas las partes implicadas en el proceso educativo del niño, tanto dentro de las aulas, como fuera de ellas.
Realmente, debe ser complicado diagnosticar los errores que se están cometiendo a nivel general en nuestro sistema educativo para que tengamos los índices tan elevados de fracaso escolar en nuestro país. Por lo que yo observo, creo que hay poca vinculación de los padres con el entorno escolar, no se nos hace partícipe del aprendizaje de nuestros hijos, los maestros solo ven a los padres en las tutorías exigidas por la ley y poco más, y si intentas vincularte un poco más con los maestros para apoyar a tus propios hijos, como que tampoco te echan mucha cuenta. Tampoco hay que exculpar a los padres, ya que hoy día, realmente, no les dedicamos todo el tiempo que se merecen y al final los perjudicados son los mismos de siempre, los niños. No podemos olvidarnos de los índices de pobreza que empezamos a tener en nuestro país, a lo que va acompañado de la mano, el absentismo escolar.
Pienso, que los órganos competentes deben exigirse mucho más, y solucionar este problema, ya que nuestros niños son nuestro futuro.

Está claro, según pienso, los padres, alumnos y profesores deben esforzarse por cohesionarse y poder llevar a cabo esta laboriosa tarea. Esta tarea, debe ser llevada por todos, de acuerdo con que si uno de esos pilares fallase, la educación del alumno, podría irse al garete y así nos dejamos de eufemismos.
Supongo que quien más debe poner de su parte es el profesor, algo que es fundamental y completamente necesario, el uso de una metodología distinta para cada educado, debido que no somos iguales, y cada uno aprende a un ritmo y de una determinada manera, labor de encontrar esa metodología, la cual haga al niño potenciar sus ganas de aprender y de este modo poder seguir evolucionando.

Desde mi punto de vista el fracaso escolar se produce entre otras cosas por la poca preocupación que los alumnos tienen a aprender, los alumnos de hoy en día no tienen el interés que hay que tener por aprender, este problema es debido también a la falta de insistencia de los padres, los padres de hoy en día siempre ven el problema en los propios educadores y no se dan cuenta que a lo mejor su propio hijo es el que no pone interés por aprender, de ahí el fracaso escolar, para mi lo mas adecuado para intentar que cada vez haya menos fracaso escolar es que tanto padres, como alumnos, como educadores pongan de su parte para un mejor aprendizaje.

El fracaso escolar segun mi humilde opinion, es un tema extremadamente delicado, ya que bajo mi punto de vista es el pilar fundamental de toda sociedad. La educación es la pieza clave de que todo pueda ir bien o mal, ya que de dicha educacion saldra la futura sociedad del pais.
¿ Quien tiene la culpa? Podemos nombrar numerosos factores que pueden influir negativamente, pongamos como por ejemplos, los docentes, alumnos, padres, politicos o sociedad en general.
¿Encontrar soluciones al fracaso escolar? Pues también podemos definir muchas que pueden ayudar eficazmente al problema, como la union de politicos para una UNICA LEY DE EDUCACIÓn, o una mayor preparación de los docente, o inculcar a los alumnos en que el ambito educativo no es una obligacion, si no una preparacion social para una mayor y mejor vida en un futuro, pero sobre todo y donde creo que recide el problema es en la EDUCACIÓN DE LOS PADRES, son ellos los que debe difundir desde pequeños los valores educativos a sus hijos para que estos lo obtengan como ejemplo.
El fracaso escolar es causado por varios factores, aunque la más importante sea un trastorno en el aprendizaje; pero como ya he dicho intervienen varios factores como los padres, profesores, políticos, economía… En mi opinión, ya expuesta en otro artículo, yo creo que la educación debería estar a un lado aparte de todos los demás problemas, como diferencias entre políticos, ya que hablamos de la educación y ésta es un pilar básico del futuro de nuestro país. Es decir, mi solución para salvar el fracaso escolar sería que en la educación estuviésemos todos unidos.

Creo que actualmente existe un gran fracaso escolar ya que según las encuesta “Informe ‘Magisterio’ 2008: el 31,2% de jóvenes entre 18 y 24 años no acabó la Secundaria superior” mientras que en Europa ese porcentaje no llega al 15%. Por lo que España se sitúa casi en la cola de Europa, ¿esto a que es debido? Estoy de acuerdo que la base de todo está en la familia , la familia es la primera que tiene que motivar al alumnado a que estudie, pero tampoco podemos dejar todo a la mano de la familia , ya que también existe el factor, escuela y el factor político , siendo este último el mayor culpable de este fracaso ya que nunca cuaja con sus leyes educativas, siempre están en continuo cambió, a parte de los cambios que sufren dichas leyes , también tienen una mala gestión a lo que a las becas se refiere, este es un factor muy importante, porque si a los jóvenes con el hecho de sacar el curso y aprobar el nivel que te pidan , da igual los ingresos y patrimonio de los padres , dieran ayudas para que el siguiente año estudiaran creo que no tendrían muchos que irse a trabajar , u otra cosa que ha entrado nueva a sido lo de regalar un portátil a cada niño, el PLAN TIC lo veo fatal , eso no motiva al niño para nada en los estudios sino todo lo contrario, creéis realmente que los niños van a utilizar el portátil para buscar información y hacer trabajo, porque personalmente yo lo he vivido en las practicas mías y no ha sido así en las mismas aulas utilizaban el portátil para meterse en paginas sociales ( facebook, tuenti ,etc..) esto es un atraso , en vez de regalar libros, juegos educativos, regalan ordenadores, pero aún así los políticos se quitan las culpas diciendo que son el profesorado, los que no saben administrar bien los recursos que se le ponen a su disposición. Que podemos esperar cuando nosotros seamos profesores, si ni los políticos saben los que quieren ni lo que van a querer. Como reflexión yo lucharía por una estabilidad en la ley educativa a largo plazo y que en vez de ir cambiando una tras otra , saquen lo positivo de cada una de ellas y hagan una que merezca la pena y en cualquier caso , que la reforme no que la cambien. Porque si se descontrola los cimientos se descontrola la estructura.

Desde mi punto de vista el fracaso escolar se produce principalmente por culpa de los padres a la hora de educar, orientar y ayudar a sus hijos en el colegio y posteriores estudios.
Este se da principalmente en familias de nivel medio y bajo los cuales sus padres en su gran mayoria no recibieron estudios y alomejor no le ha ido mal del todo en la vida y que pasa que a todos los niños llega el periodo de lo “pajaritos” en la cabeza y muchos padres en vez de decir pues a estudiar y es lo que hay, le dan la posibilidad de trabajar para que estos vean lo duro que es,etc. Que pasa que cuando ganan cuatro “perras” ya no quieren volver a los estudios.
Conclusión como dice mi abuela:”niño estudia que la cosa esta muy mala y nosotros no vamos a vivir eternamente”. Con esto quiero decir que cada uno debe ser concecuente con lo que hace aunque despues quiera meterse a trabajar por ejemplo en la carniceria del vecino pero la formación pienso que nunca esta de mas, ademas como dice el refran el saber no ocupa lugar.

El tema del fracaso escolar es uno de los temas más preocupantes en la actualidad ya que se ha convertido en un gran problema en la educación actual debido al gran número de niños que fracasan en sus estudios hasta el punto de no terminar ni la enseñanza obligatoria.
En mi opinión a pesar de estar trabajándose en este aspecto en la actualidad todavía queda mucho que trabajar, yo pienso que todos deberíamos trabajar y ayudar en la medida de nuestras posibilidades tanto padres, alumnos, profesores y toda la comunidad educativa.
Yo pienso que una de las medidas más importantes que se deberían adoptar para luchar contra el fracaso escolar puede ser la de realizar una enseñanza mas individualizada, ya que cada alumno es diferente y tiene unas necesidades distintas a las del resto por lo cual , se deberían tratar de forma más individual para poder comprobar cuales son los problemas de cada uno y las necesidades para tratar de resolverlas aunque eso suponga tener que contratar a mas profesores y reducir los grupos por cada profesor, ya que no creo que eso suponga un problema ya que hay muchos profesores en paro y si la educación lo necesita se debería hacer cueste lo que cueste, ya que es muy importante para la sociedad actual y del futuro.

Como bien dice el texto el fracaso escolar no se le puede atribuir únicamente a las dificultades personales que tienen los alumnos para alcanzar los objetivos marcados por el sistema educativo sino que también se le puede atribuir importancia en este sentido a la falta de capacidad de adaptación del sistema y del profesorado.
El alto índice de fracaso escolar que tenemos en nuestro país es cuanto menos, preocupante, por lo que creo que se deberían tomar medidas serias y llevar a cabo una reestructuración casi completa de la educación que sea tomada por todos los que tienen como función planificar, decidir y desarrollar el proceso educativo. Para poder mejorar, es necesario primero saber cuáles son las causas del reciente fracaso y es por eso que nos habla el artículo de “diagnóstico´´ que lo divide en ciertas fases.
La primera de las fases es el tratamiento de la información escolar y familiar. Esta fase cobra, a mi juicio, gran importancia ya que el núcleo familiar es importantísimo en el desarrollo del niño y es algo que lo condiciona durante toda su vida en menor o mayor medida por lo que este puede ser un buen lugar para indagar en busca de las deficiencias que conducen al fracaso escolar.
La segunda fase es la exploración psico-pedagógica que trata el desarrollo directo del alumno en diversos campos como son el nivel mental, la exploración del lenguaje, del nivel pedagógico, etc. Datos que son relevantes para conseguir encontrar el origen de las deficiencias que acaban derivando en el fracaso escolar.
Como ya dije antes, la única forma de prevenir el fracaso escolar, es con la total implicación de todos los agentes participantes en el proceso como padres, profesores y los mismos alumnos para que conjuntamente tomen parte activa en la tarea educativa.
A la pregunta ¿Cómo tratar el fracaso escolar? pienso que se debería responder a cada caso por separado, llevando a cabo un minucioso estudio de cada caso teniendo en cuenta algunos aspectos:
1. El tratamiento debe estar basado en el diagnóstico.
2. La enseñanza correctiva ha de ser individualizada.
3. El programa correctivo debe ser estimulante y motivador.
4. Los ejercicios y materiales deben seleccionarse cuidadosamente.
5. El tratamiento debe tener en cuenta todas las circunstancias ambientales en que el niño se desenvuelve.
6. El progreso del niño debe ser continuamente evaluado

Estoy completamente de acuerdo con el artículo, pero también considero que el fracaso escolar no es siempre debido a una mala programación/enseñanza, hay muchos factores (que quizás antes no se acentuaban tanto) que deberíamos evitar para así lograr un mayor interés por el aprendizaje, con estos factores me refiero a: la educación en los hogares, es allí donde realmente han de evitar el fracaso escolar; la atención, la falta de interés en las clases cada vez va en aumento; poca motivación/interés por parte de los padres de los alumnos, tanto en la escuela como en sus hogares ya no se preocupan por la educación de sus hijos, es algo que directamente lo achacan a sus profesores. Si consiguiésemos evitar todos estos factores y algunos otros, además de seguir los pasos mencionados en el artículo, sería esta la manera de evitar el fracaso escolar.
Creo que el fracaso escolar es un tema que necesitaría una investigación profunda y seria, pues son varios los aspectos a tratar, los cuales van desde el poco tiempo que los niños pasan con sus padres ya que hoy en día padres y madres trabajan y se comunican muy poco con sus hijos; pasando por los métodos de enseñanza aplicados por los profesores (generalmente método tradicional) que aburren a los niños no motivándolos para aprender e interesarse por la escuela, también destacaría otro factor importantísimo como los cambios constantes de Ley de Educación que se hacen según el color político que nos gobierne. Entiendo pues que éstos nos han llevado a tan alto índice de fracaso escolar.
Prevenir el fracaso escolar es tarea difícil siendo necesario para ello el convencimiento y el esfuerzo conjunto de las Administraciones públicas, de los profesores y de los padres para trabajar en una misma dirección y poder poco a poco dar solución al grave problema educacional que tenemos, siendo todo ello un proyecto a largo plazo.
Por último señalar que estoy de acuerdo con las medidas que señala el artículo referente a la recuperación educativa, pues es importante trabajar a cada niño de una forma personalizada y estimulante, respecto a los principios que rigen la aplicabilidad educativa manifestar que es un buen comienzo para arreglar la situación a corto plazo, pues hay que profundizar mucho más en el problema.
Antonio Salguero Andrino.

Estimado Antonio, estoy de acuerdo en lo que comentas, el fracaso escolar es un tema bastante importante,yo añadiría otra cosa más y es que la base del desarrollo de un país va a depender de como se gestionen las cosas en el presente ya que ello incidirá sobre el futuro, esto quiere decir que todos los factores que se han comentado en el artículo si no se aplican de forma adecuada para subsanar el problema dará como consecuencia a un adulto poco preparado, con inseguridades para afrontar el mundo laboral y las empresas no se andan con chiquitas, actualmente, por desgracia debido a los continuos cambios de planes de estudio que premian a un alumno que realiza el mínimo esfuerzo, que eso es fracaso escolar, cuando llegan a la universidad se estrellan por no poder alcanzar el nivel de estudio y preparación que le exige la carrera provocando el abandono, esto tambien ha hecho que el nivel de enseñanza universitaria tambien disminuya con el fin de disminuir ese abandono, pero que pasa cuando terminan? que muchos no son capaces de llegar al nivel que les exige la empresa y no son aptos para llevar un puesto de responsabilidad, porque para ello se debe reunir un perfil determinado dentro del cual se encuentra factores personales como confianza, seguridad, tenacidad, proactividad, disciplina, respeto etc, elementos que se deben alimentar desde la infancia a través de los padres, educadores y del esfuerzo del niño.
Actualmente la tedencia que existe en las empresas, fomentado por ese “fracaso escolar” y la crisis, es que las mismas prefieren individuos inseguros y que no sepan demasiado para poder manipularlas con facilidad ya que un individuo con las características positivas que he comentado antes es díficil que lo manipiulen y eso a determinadas entidades les molesta. En definitiva, el fracaso escolar puede conllevar a todo esto.
Un saludo, Ana Queraltó
Desde mi punto de vista en el fracaso escolar participan 3 elementos:profesor, alumno, y padres.
Todos tienen parte de culpa en el fracaso escolar de un niño, pero principalmente son los padres que son los que tienen que educar al niño desde un primer momento y ayudarles y apoyarles en todo lo necesario respecto de la educación.Después pienso que tiene bastante culpa el propio alumno porque el fracaso escolar depende directamente de ellos mismos.
Por último pienso que el profesor es el que menos culpa tiene del fracaso, aunque su profesionalidad es fundamental a la hora de que un alumno fracase o no.

Pienso que para ver a que es debido este fracaso escolar debemos tener en cuenta diversos factores como son la familia,la economía de está y la motivación del niño hacia la escuela…
Todo esto influye más de lo que uno puede llegar a imaginar en el niño de forma que lo más importante bajo mi punto de vista es que los padres se comprometan con el maestro para motivar a el alumno tanto interna como externamente para que no caiga en la desmotivación de la cual para un niño y sin la colaboración de sus padres puede ser el punto y final para salir de ella…
