The kick-off meeting of the second phase of the Programme took place yesterday at the Ministry of Education, Sports and Youth (MESY): "Improve implementation of policies to address school dropout", developed by the CFCA in cooperation with the European Commission's Directorate General for Reforms. The meeting was also attended by the Minister of Education, Sports and Youth, Mr Prodromos Prodromou.
Having completed the first phase, in which data related to dropout and school failure were recorded and explored, proposals for alternative education programmes that can be adopted in order to better match the education provided with specific groups of the student population were developed.
Taking into account the ongoing reform of the student assessment system and the data available for the first time from the first three years of its implementation, it will be used as a basis for the development of a new system of student assessment.
