PROCESS AND INTERVENTIONS IN THE IMPLEMENTATION OF THE PROGRAM

Indicators at the school level that a student may be at risk of disengaging include:

1. erratic or no attendance.
2. low literacy or numeracy/poor attainment.
3. lack of interest in school and/or stated intention to leave.
4. negative interactions with peers.
5. behavioural issues including aggression, violence, or social withdrawal.

Students who drop out typically have a history of absenteeism, grade retention and academic
trouble and are more disengaged from school life. School structure, curriculum and size are
factors influential to increased likelihood of a student experiencing academic risk factors.
