Learning difficulties and ESL
Student with learning difficulties are often characterized as a risk group of early school leaving. Several students implied that they do not feel engaged and connected to the school since the traditional programs and teachers fail to meet their needs. Special programmes of teacher professional development and didactic approaches should be therefore developed and employed in order to prevent early school leaving of this group of students.
