SCHOOL DROPOUT AMONG ROMA STUDENTS. CAUSES AND METHODS OF PREVENTION

Summary/Abstract: Family involvement in children's education is fundamental for success in education. Given the even more important role of the family and the community in the Roma context, it is essential to identify the consequences of early school leaving on Roma children, in terms of personal development, as well as on their future socio-economic integration. It is extremely important that there is a collaboration of Roma families in terms of staying in the educational system of Roma girls, who are the most affected by the high rates of early school leaving. Therefore, a widespread phenomenon that should be treated with greater attention and that has become a serious problem of Romanian education is school dropout. School dropout is found among all students, but especially among those of Roma ethnicity, students who adapt with difficulty both in society and in the education system, who face the difficult acceptance in communities (more and more parents are reluctant to enrol their children in classes where there are also children of Roma ethnicity). (The Gentle, 2021) Roma cultivate, especially in children, a sense of reality as well as the ability to conceive survival strategies and less concern for school, they, in turn, receive the same education.
