Externalising behaviours (e.g. deviant, disruptive, oppositional behaviour) are consistently shown to be risk factors for ESL. Civic competence (via participation in extracurricular activities) as well as social competence constitute protective factors. Peers also play a role. Supporting students’ social and emotional adjustment early on is warranted.

The student’s academic self-concept and its link with ESL
Supporting the development of a positive academic self-concept is an important factor in preventing ESL. In order to support its development, teachers should pay attention to how they provide feedback to their students (i.e. negative feedback should only be directed to the behaviour/achievement/result and never to the person).
