"In favour. Early school leaving (ESL) is a complex phenomenon and a huge challenge facing Europe. Consequently, the EU has begun putting in place numerous measures and tools to better support Member States in developing efficient and effective national policies to tackle it. They include the Commission communication on tackling early school leaving, a new proposal for a Council recommendation on policies to reduce early school leaving, and the Commission’s flagship initiative ‘Youth on the Move’. The Europe 2020 strategy, in addition, outlines six headline targets for Member States, one of which is to reduce ESL to 10% by 2020. This 10% target was previously agreed by Member States in 2003; however, only seven of them managed to reach the benchmark. In 2009, the rate of ESL for all 18-to-24-year-olds in Europe stood at 14.4%. Most EU countries have made at least some progress in reducing the number of young people leaving school early or with low qualifications, and there has been a noticeable and positive change in how they approach early school leaving; yet this report argues that far more needs to be done."@en1
