Government of the Republic of Serbia
UNICEF and the Centre for Education Policy, in cooperation with the Ministry of Education, Science and Technological Development commenced the implementation of the project “Prevention of Early School Leaving in the Republic of Serbia.”
The project aims to decrease the dropout rate and early school leaving of children and adolescents through establishing and implementing mechanisms for early detection of children at risk of dropping out, as well as to contribute to the realisation of efficient measures of prevention and intervention by strengthening the capacity of the schools.
The primary target group consists of children at risk of dropping out from the educational system and their parents. Due to the wide social significance of the project, the Project Board includes representatives of the Ministry, educational institutions, the Social Inclusion and Poverty Reduction Unit and the Republic Bureau for Social Security. The Project Board will take care of the implementation of project goals and its compliance with other initiatives and policies.
The project will be implemented in 10 regular elementary and secondary schools which have been selected through a competition for schools and will continue until October 2016.
