UNIT 3: Formal, Informal and Non-formal Education (Reading Comprehension) Drop outs Come Back Dropping out of school is a serious problem in Morocco. Each year, nearly 200,000 children leave school before completing their primary education. A new government initiative in Morocco offers some ideas to reduce the number of students who leave school. This initiative is part of an awareness campaign targeting parents. Researchers and government officials largely attribute the problem to the ignorance of poor parents who do not realize the importance of education. Many parents, for example, withdraw their children from school because of the need for household income which often pushes children to work. Drop-out rates are higher among children of illiterate parents. These rates can be reduced if we sensitize parents about the importance of sending their children to school. In 2006, Morocco launched a number of awareness campaigns to address this growing phenomenon. These campaigns introduce a national programme which encourages school children to make a list of non-registered children and children who dropped out. More than 14,000 teachers and headmasters will also be responsible for implementing this plan. The initiative is considered a logical one because it will get children who have dropped out back into the school system, and it will act as a preventive measure because it raises students’ awareness to the negative consequences of dropping out. The initiative was tested last year in a few regions. Fatima Lharti, a twelve-yearold school girl from Tangiers, says she managed to stop approximately one dozen children dropping out and persuaded a number of others who had already dropped out to come back to school. “When they hear children – the same age as their own- talking about the consequences of taking their children out of school, most of them come around within a few minutes, “Fatima proudly told Maghrebia website reporter. Samir El Garoumi missed a year of school to work for his family. He is now back in school and has made a balance between work and studies. In the morning, he goes to school and in the evening, he helps his father in his workshop. This year, he is taking part in the initiative to make a list of children who are not in school. He also advises parents in his family circle to allow their children to finish their education. (Adapted from: (www.magharebia.com)
