O fenômeno do abandono escolar na europa do novo milênio: Dados, políticas, intervenções e perspectivas

Abstract

The essay discusses the phenomenon of Early School Leaving in the European Union in light of community educational policies and discusses the limits of the relation between human capital and competitiveness of the labor market that these policies propose. The approaches adopted to prevent and compensate for school dropouts, that is, Vocational Education and Training and Second Chance Schools, involve successes but also limits. Therefore, it is necessary to redefine the role of education and promote active learning based on the agency of young people through a transformation of the teaching profession and teaching strategies.
