| Sumario: |
This research is a description, analysis and reflection on child and youth poverty. Spain has a very deep economic crisis. Proposals for the Government to address social problems are based on the neoliberal model. Students go to school, but in many cases the results are poor, so Spain presents a high rate of school failure. The methodology includes bibliographic research, interviews in depth and treatment of quantitative and qualitative data. The results show a very high dropout. In Spain, there is a significant number of children and adolescents in situation of poverty, which allows to establish a relationship between child and youth poverty and dropout. The Government focuses its attention on the educational institution and only gets to discredit it; performances and results are insufficient. Therefore, the proposal is that the Ministry of education (together with other relevant institutions) develop global and comprehensive policies in order to deal with the problem. |
