Counselling early school-leavers

Encouraging completion of formal education
Introducing flexible school-leaving after minimum requirement

Description

Counselling early school-leavers involves providing targeted guidance and support to young people at risk of, or who have already left, formal education prematurely. The strategy aims to address underlying personal, social, and academic challenges, helping individuals identify alternative educational or vocational pathways. By offering practical advice, emotional support, and connections to resources, counselling mitigates dropout-related disadvantages, promotes re-engagement with learning or employment, and reduces the long-term social and economic impacts of early school leaving.
